One thing now is of course that covid-19 influence everything. Sitting in the cafeteria at work one can hear people planning to stay here with the mosquitoes in the north during the vacation. Foreigners don’t want us. Someone even said we are “the bully victim of Europe”. Okay the world isn’t an American high school drama - or is it? Anyway for fun I want to work with that parable. Being the bully victim the revenge has to be to first keep our hands clean and our head cool and watch the graphes going down. (They are going down, and the curve has been flat. While we in April did had more or less the same mortality like during a bad flu before the influenza vaccine, in May it got close to a normal month. No, I didn’t believe it either, but it’s official statistic.) Then show the world we still is the country that developed Lidocaine and ELISA and was so good at molecular cloning that we attracted Emmanuelle Charpentier to work here.

After writing that you know the other thing that's going on. On social media one can see the claim that white European should not be smug, Europe is just as racist as the US. On the other hand on Twitter a Kurdish-Swedish, social democrat (and nurse and muslim if that matters) named Nalin Pekgul said the Swedish police is not like the American police and not the problem. Not that she speak for everyone, and I have a bias to believe her.
