You protect everyone one day - by getting to everyone being immunised. By a vaccine. What we currently try to do, is not solving the issue, but buying time. Flattening the curve does not cure Covid-19. It buys us time before a - hopefully flatter - peak comes, and hopefully prevents health care systems from getting overwhelmed and not being able to help neither Corona patients nor any other patient. Obviously that is very difficult to acchiece, the war rages hot and unforgiving in France, Italy, Spain.


How do we buy time? We flatten the curve. We all wear a face mask. We practice social distancing. All this slows down the spread of the deasese. And gives our researchers time they need. "2 meters distance determines our existence."
