Accurately analysed

In the times of COVID-19, all our daily lives depend on decisions made by politicians. They make these decisions with the collaboration of scientists, among others, who interpret and analyse figures and studies. An accurate analysis is therefore a mandatory starting point.

For more than half a year, one topic has dominated the media and our everyday lives: COVID-19. Every day, case numbers are reported, published and interpreted. Lockdown? Open schools? Mandatory wearing of masks? Politicians have to make these difficult decisions, which are existential for some people. Epidemiologists, virologists, doctors, but also economists, lobbyists and many others are at their side to advise them. The interests of the individual parties are often irreconcilable. Nevertheless: Decisions must be made. A very important point in the decision-making process is the number of cases of newly infected persons. These figures must be correct.
