Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi Karina Reiss Corona, False Alarm?
START AT 25 MIN
Richie is joined by Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi and Right Said Fred. In June 2020, Corona, False Alarm? exploded into the German market, selling 200,000 copies and 75,000 e-books in six weeks. Now it has been translated into English. The book tackles the challenges around lockdown: Were the protective measures justified? Mandatory mask-wearing: Does the science support it? Does the race for vaccine development make sense? What are the chances of success? Will the vaccine be safe? Will people accept it? Corona, False Alarm? provides you with sound information and substantiated facts-and encourages you to form your own opinion on the corona crisis. Co-author Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi joins Richie to discuss the book. Right Said Fred's Richard and Fairbrass are national treasures. The band has sold tens of millions of records worldwide and have had number one singles in the US, UK and a dozen other countries at least. The guys went to Trafalgar Square on Saturday to observe the anti-lockdown protest and check out the speakers. The national press put the boot in, attempted to ridicule the guys and a Twitter storm ensued. Fred and Richard discuss this and their feelings about lockdown with Richie. They also talk about the impact of lockdown on the entertainment industry and more.
