It is said of the Spaniards, they would have more sense for the heroes than the German, it is a matter of your Temperament, and your mistrust in the policy. Most of your heroes have a crack, but not deterred, so like Don Quixote, that she particularly appreciates. The heroes of the crisis were, in turn, in Germany and Spain more or less the same, nurses, Doctors, cashiers, suppliers and virologists, which also explains why Christian Drosten in Spain, “the German Fernando Simón” means. Simón is an epidemiologist from Zaragoza and head of the emergency coordination centre of the Ministry of health, and he has given in the past few weeks so tirelessly information in television, radio and in newspaper interviews, that some Spaniard put his face in Velázquez’s paintings mounted and the “New York Times” him to a “lovable scientific hero figure”.

F. A. Z.
As the Spaniard still did not imagine, could, when it should give back a sort of normalcy for them, remained Simón confident: It had to eventually show its effect if you isolated the people for a week. Already at the end of February he became ill as a result even the Virus had tried it with prudence. Now, since the Spaniards back to the sea, print on Online retailer T-Shirts, mugs and beach bags with Simón-likenesses, the times of Einstein, time Bilbo Baggins to remember. Tattoo-Studios took in his slightly disheveled head to the program. From the reaction of the virologists on his Popikonisierung was only known that he is recommending to donate a portion of the proceeds to NGOs. The municipality of Hinojos, in turn, 3000 inhabitants, does not want to name a square after him, when the conservative people’s party PP prevents at the last Moment. Because the representation of the hero, Simón has a small crack in it.
the trailer of the PP and the right-wing Vox party and have it apart on the Confidence of their national virologists. Had before the world women’s day on 8. March finally said, he have no concerns, should someone from his family to the Demonstration to participate, and, together with the Ministry of health ensured that she was allowed to take place. An international Meeting of believers in Madrid was banned in mid-March, however. All this smell like a blatant miscalculation, in addition, had Simon from his left ethos, so the accusation. The former basketball player Alfonso Reyes compared Simón on Instagram with Napoleon’s clueless-optimistic consultant prior to the Russian campaign. A past Vox-party Congress came around the same time, and presumably three members of an infected, rarely the language.
Indeed, the Spanish economy has attributed to the Institute Fedea advanced, more than half of the infections would have been prevented, had the output constraints from the 7. March applied. The Hesitation of the government has affected people’s lives, the Spaniards in their distrust of the policy. Thousands also went on the road. But few want to imagine what would have happened if the country would have been without Fernando Simón from the emergency release.
