A virus has taken hold of the world, upsetting the globalized economy. No one can say how much Covid-19 will change global society in the coming months.

Opportunity through panic reactions
But behind the panic reactions with which contemporaries like the intellectually rather simple-minded American president want to contain the spread of Corona, there is also an opportunity. After all, no one has ever put out a fire by panicking - it can only be done as a team. In this specific case, with a global team. This is the only way to rebuild the currently disturbed intercontinental comfort zone.

Corona
Standstill in Formula 1 - a situation that will hopefully soon be a thing of the past.

Global defense measures
If it is possible to build global production chains, then it will also be possible to build global defenses against the sinister virus. And that will happen - not tomorrow, but in the coming months.

Once success has been achieved and Corona has been defeated, these experiences should then also free up forces for the fight against climate change. Until then, we simply return to our private comfort zone and rediscover our partner. This, too, is a consequence of Corona.

Vision of better times
The Glattbrugg-based sex toy retailer Amorana, at any rate, is one of the few beneficiaries of the Corona epidemic and has recorded significantly increased sales.

And Daimler CEO Källenius also already sees better times on the horizon. "Next year we'll see Geneva," he promised in an interview with Blick.
