Again you nailed it. Here in Germany the Panic Flu has brought a kind of transformation to our society. Reasonable and critical voices concerning the spread of hysteria and fear by the government and media now are silenced or threated. Such voices are defamed as conspiracists or quacks, meanwhile, the most absurd actions are undertaken to fight the deathly virus, denying common sens and freedom of the people.
That's what I heard, I hope those conditions don't last long.
