Germany and Corona

1.  As of this morning (via Focus and it's reporting), there are roughly 9,100 new infections.  To be kinda honest, it's a fairly high number and freaking out politicians. 

2.  Another school episode occurred in the far NE of Germany (Mecklenburg), with a teacher testing positive.  The authorities have announced that all the kids and teachers in the school....on Monday....will be tested, to see how far that infection spread.

3.  The Corona demonstration (against the ban-rules) for Stuttgart took place yesterday (Saturday).  It was an approved demonstration, using social distancing rules dictated by the police.  Numbers?  Kept to a couple hundred.  Police allowed this demonstration to continue because they stayed within the 'boundary'.

4.  The German show 'Jungle Camp'....held yearly in January in Australia and beamed back to Germany (live).....is openly being discussed.  It is one of the more popular shows....running nightly for roughly two weeks.  For 15 years....held in the jungle camp of Australia. 

The discussion centers on the Covid-19 problems and entering Australia.  The Brit show (same as the German one) is going over the idea of moving everything into Scotland. The German production crew is open to the idea. 

It is one of the more popular shows on German TV....with millions who watch it nightly.

5.  Lot more pressure being put on Lufthansa now to repay tickets cancelled out because of the Coronavirus.  To get the massive loan deal via the government, Lufthansa had to agree to repay customers with tickets who cancelled.  Well....it's kinda obvious now that movement is marginally happening, and the government may have to step in and do some corrective action on Lufthansa.
