These are things that just set me to pondering:
1. No massive wave of Covid out of the Oktoberfest.
Yes, for weeks and weeks, there was this anticipation of the 'great' wave of Covid to come to Munich. So far? Nothing much. The city of Munich has even gone to test waste-water....thinking they'd get an indicator there.
Why? Unknown. Maybe everyone has had it....or gotten vaxed-up.
Some locals admit....business for the fest is way short of normal....some even saying that one-third of their profits expected....aren't there. Fear of Covid, and weather (pretty crappy the past week) might tie into this.
2. German weapon sales to Saudi Arabia.....zero approvals?
That's correct....the Scholz coalition has not approved any weapon sales. What happens now? Open market for US, France, UK, etc.
I would anticipate that several companies will look at the idea of relocating their operation beyond the German border.
3.. More Covid deaths in Germany for 2022....than in 2021 or 2020?
Yeah. It was openly discussed on N-TV this AM and probably begs a lot of questions.
Total German deaths since day one? 149,361 out of 83-million. Infection situation? They are approaching 33-million official infections....although some of these people are two and three times infected. The majority still not having had it? Yes, that's the big story I think in the end.
This week, I talked to an American who works in a clinic.....twice in the past year....she's had Covid. 'Comes with the business' is the comeback in her response.
