Camus beschreibt in seinem 1947 verfassten Roman, wie in der Stadt Oran zu einem unbestimmten Zeitpunkt in den 1940er Jahren eine Seuche ausbricht. Die Stadt wird von der Außenwelt abgeschottet und so entsteht ein Krisenmikrokosmos, in dem sich verschiedene menschliche Charaktere mit ihrem Verhalten dazu positionieren. Gerling: „Es geht im Roman um altruistisches Engagement jenseits jeder Gewissheit.

Amid the global spread of COVID-19, the exceptional strict confinement to our homes offers important lessons about the urgency of bridging the digital divide.
Where I live, in Osona (rural Catalonia, northern Spain), 15 years ago there was no Internet access. Commercial operators said it wasn’t profitable. So, we set up a community network, Guifi.net, initially with radio connections, and in 2009 we deployed fiber optics. Today, we have connected many small towns and have more than 200,000 estimated users.

Politicians, journalists, and even scientists these days like to use the metaphor of war to describe the efforts that will now be necessary against the novel corona virus: "Sars-CoV-2 is our common enemy. We must declare war on this virus. That means countries have a responsibility to do more, to arm themselves and to strengthen themselves." (António Guterres in a guest article for the Süddeutsche Zeitung, 15.03.2020) At first glance, this drastic choice of words seems to make sense if one considers the restrictions and changes that this pandemic is imposing on us.
The pandemic now sweeping the planet is one of those historic events that will change many basic premises of modern life. Let us act swiftly to deal with the emergencies, but let us also seize the opportunity to think about long-term system change. If there is one thing that the pandemic confirms (in tandem with climate change), it is that our modern economic and political systems must change in some profound ways. And we are the ones who must push that change forward. We’ve already seen what state officialdom has in mind — more bailouts for a dysfunctional system.

Housebound in a springtime lockdown to hope for the best, prepare for the worst, and flatten the curve.
