The term was created in the past year and is supposed to indicate the day when people treat Covid like the regular flu.
If you asked me over the statistical average of Germans already in this belief....I'd probably judge it near the 15-to-20 percent level. These are people who simply want to move on, and get normal once again.
In the past month, if you watch various public forum shows from ARD/ZDF....it's been mentioned.
Doctor virus experts? They discount it entirely.
The general problem? The hype on Covid in Germany has been going on for almost twenty months now. In terms of the economy and personal finances....everyone has suffered to some degree. Psychological experts tend to suggest that a quarter of all kids have some mental issues brewing because of the school shutdowns, and even some experts suggest the same number of adults have a stress issue in their lives.
I sat a few weeks ago viewing some news show which wanted to hype this individual who had a public phobia of some type....where they were in absolute fear in public places....worried over someone coughing or touching some surface which might have Covid smeared over it. Even I'll admit if I'm in a grocery and someone does an extended cough.....I'm likely to vacate the store in a matter of sixty seconds.
Will 'Freedom-Day' ever come? I'm personally doubtful. But here's the thing.....we are all dragging the Covid-anchor around, and there's no doubt that the vaccination business, treatment strategy, hygiene rules and recovered crowd....must lead to a 'Freedom-Day' of some type. People die from the flu on a regular basis anyway, so maybe it's not such a bad idea to just say we've entered a bold new era....create a national holiday of some type......open up the pubs/bars for everyone, and just get on with regular living again.
