Two Things

 I sat this morning and watched a brief bit of N-TV news (commercial German news) and two curious Covid stories came up.

A health and social psychologist at the University of Koln came out and said that Germans will have to get used to freedoms they have newly acquired, as Covid diminishes this summer.  

The quote to key upon?  "It is difficult for many to break away from the new habits and rules." (Simone Dohle).

The idea that people have 'knocked' themselves in the head and gotten all pro-ban-ruled?  I just don't buy that about the German public. I think the bulk of Germans are literally begging for the ban rules to finally end, and life being allowed to return to 'normal'.  

The suggestion that you will have to go step-by-step in adjusting your behavior and enjoyment of freedoms?  I'm just not buying into that idea.   

Second item?  You.Gov went out and asked Germans what they 'thought' about the federal government crisis handling of the vaccination/infection business.

So there it is...roughly a quarter of Germans were 'very dissatisfied' about the leadership/handling in this crisis period.  With this....another 30-percent said they were 'somewhat dissatisfied' with the achievements done.  So more than 50-percent are negative.  

Going into an election period, with this high number of disgruntled voters?  It would beg questions and really harm the brand name of the CDU-CSU and SPD parties.
