Tag: low German deaths

Tremendous amount of 'Discipline'. First off, Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, announced via a televised message to the whole of Germany that COVID-19 is a serious threat and that the citizens should take it seriously too. Also, it is worth noting that Merkel has shut the German borders, airports, making visitors and everyone else coming in and out of the country to turn back.

Pure luck. About 80 percent of the infections recorded in Germany have been mild according to German Health Minister Jens Spahn

Another thing that contributed to the low statistics, intensive medical treatment and good health care system. Trump is looking to align his own version of health care for the US which is inspired by what they are doing in Germany.
