Interpretations of definitions are always difficult. From what I understand this pandemic is not a force majeure. In this case, I think that we need a new expression defining a state between normal life and force majeur. A new legal term. We are living in uncertainty and there is no progress. We know this will change but we don’t know when. And we know this will happen again and then we need to be prepared. I suggest that legal authorities should define a new legal term between normal life and force majeure.

I listen to music and I miss having an ordinary training life. Tomorrow I will go for some exercise. It was a long time ago I went running and right now I don’t understand that I have been on training 4-6 hours per week. Summertime is soft jazz music, and I am sharing a song with the American singer Eva Cassidy. She passed away in cancer, and got more famous after her death. Beautiful, beautiful voice, and this song, “Son of a preacher”, is also in eg the movie Pulp fiction with John Travolta. Summertime is also movies.

A lot of vacations have started and some people choose to stay and some people travel. From what I understand, the industry is in early phases of clinical trials of a vaccin. Antibodies are demonstrated after injections, but it is difficult to evaluate the actual clinical immunity against the Corona virus. I am waiting. First vaccin, then travel.

I listen to music in the evenings, and I browsed the internet. This is a political virus. Italy suffered a lot in the beginning of this year and Florida is currently undergoing a similar viral outbreak. In a way, democracy is affected when there are elections in various countries. And an important election is approaching in the USA. How many voters will there be?

I found this with John Travolta. I read that his wife Kelly Preston recently and tragically passed away in cancer. What a mess with everything. I feel that we have to keep up a good spirit because I am sure that we are able to go through this.

Stay safe!

Tomorrow is France National Day. It feels so strange that you cannot travel due to the Corona virus. You are allowed to travel to some countries, but it doesn’t feel right. I will stay at home. Maybe I can find something French for dinner tomorrow. To replace travelling. First I thought of playing something with France Gall, then I changed my mind. This is such a beautiful feel good song with the Beatles. For France ✨

This is my diary where I share my thoughts on various things and experiences. Like now, since it is rather intense with the Corona virus. I had actually started to think of moving less than a year ago, but the virus has hampered a lot with its subsequent disease COVID-19. However, I am moving.

I have worked a lot this last decade. Writing, writing and writing. And, in addition, I have travelled and integrated my thoughts with writing and photography. My way of thinking has been influenced from what I learnt at the Department of Pharmacology in Göteborg. From Professor Jörgen Engel, and he in his turn, learnt from Professor Arvid Carlsson. How to put complex, abstract pieces together and make a conclusion. I have applied this way of thinking on politics, religion etc. From molecule to politics – a classical top-down analysis. And not the least, I have suggested paths forward. These various subjects are more or less prohibited but so important. It affects our daily life and living so much.

I havn´t started to write my next book because I need time to reflect on what I have written. I cross my fingers that I will write a new book with my own intellectual property. For inspiration to education!

A multi-disciplinary group has been put together by the Swedish government to analyze the outcome in Sweden with regard to Covid-19. Since I worked a lot when I was in Norway during the Swine flu, I remember even though it was a decade ago. This time it is much more severe. We are waiting for a vaccine to be developed, and at the same time, we also recall the side effects of the Swine flu vaccine at that time. It is complicated.

When you read the news you have to be careful with what you read. Everything is not true, and some is true with modification. I read that the Asian military army is given access to a vaccine against the COVD-19 pandemic developed by a Chinese 🇨🇳 company. The Swedish army needs to be sponsored. In the beginning of the outbreak we were very soon out of alco gel sanitizers and medical face masks. Thermometers. A field hospital was built and not used in Stockholm. Only in Göteborg. Moreover, a lot of people in Sweden has died compared to other Nordic countries, especially among elderly people. This commission should compare what this difference may depend on. I strongly believe in:

1) no communication

2) no focus on sanitizing (disinfect and cleaning)

We need to learn and bring routines with us in the future. The WHO has a very important role in gathering new knowledge into practice. How to communicate next virus outbreak so it easily can be isolated. Last time I wrote I felt a little worried because there are a lot of people who do not care about fellow beings and consequences of the Corona virus. However, I try to stay happy whenever I can and I do wear face mask to show respect to eg people with high risk of developing severe symptoms of Covid-19. If you continue with washing routines and distancing I am sure you can avoid being infected. Stay safe!
