(In Retrospect from Freedom of Information (FOIA-like) documents). On March 2, 2020 Germany’s Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the equivalent to CDC, started to buckle under pressure from outside forces and without any evidence upgraded the COVID-19 risk from ‘low to moderate‘ to ‘moderate‘, despite its own labs having tested 140 samples for SARS-CoV-2 and ALL tests coming back negative. #RKIFiles
On March 2, 2020 German Health Minister Jens Sphan appeared before cameras flanked by Professors, including Christian Drosten, to talk-up the Corona threat! Further on March 3rd and 6th, collectively 293 more samples came back negative for the virus, but German politicians kept speaking up a non-existent threat. [1, 2]
Then following the March 16, 2020 release of the Imperial College’s (flawed) modelling, plus carrot of funding, the RKI protocol was altered on the basis of a (redacted) outside force. Then on March 17, 2020, RKI’s head Prof Lothar Wieler announced the risk assessment level has been “high”. “The upgrade of the risk assessment was… the legal foundation of all coronavirus measures.”
On March 22, 2020 Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel announced Germany must lockdown, with 2 person rule, justified on the basis that coronavirus is spreading “further with worrying speed”, and no vaccine is currently available.
But the actual increase in virus distribution, in relation to the number of PCR tests, was only one percentage point just before the lockdown – from 6% to 7% of people returning a positive, this “was the so-called “exponential growth” of the epidemic” that justified the lockdown, which the RKI knew would be devastating.
Effectively the whole world acted like Germany, and around the same time!
