“If I think back to the Corona Pandemic today, I don’t feel that we acknowledged those we lost. I feel that we were in a hurry to leave this delayed time behind, which in retrospect appears as a heavy, dark dream. Fortunately, most of us have woken up from this. For those who did not recover from a SARS-COV-2 infection, it continues.” – Andreas seibert
