Wolfgang Wodarg is a German doctor and member of the SPD. As president of the parliamentary assembly of the health committee of the council of Europe, he co-signed in mid-December 2009 a proposal/call (which was debated with the urgent procedure in January 2010) for an investigation into the influence exerted by pharmaceutical companies on the WHO’s campaign for the H1N1 flu pandemic…
His views have been more widely known in Germany since the beginning of 2020. After a television discussion where he supported that there is no evidence that covid-19 has serious lethality, the German media took him on, accusing him of inaccuracies….
The interesting thing about what he says is that from a certain point on, he doesn’t speak like a doctor, but like a political showman: he accuses what in Greek we would call “special circuits” of trying to make money from the terrorism of covid-19… (And one should think that the SPD is part of the government!)
Do such things happen in Germany? (Because they happen elsewhere…)
