Very uncool: Die Schweiz verspielt gerade den erreichten Erfolg mit Covid-19. Wir haben zu viel geöffnet & falsche Sicherheit vorgespiegelt.
Um Schlimmeres zu verhindern, braucht es dringend strengere Massnahmen. Das ist wichtig sowohl für die Gesundheit wie für die Wirtschaft.

Short answer (2): OK, but it took some time. Even large and immediate changes to cash flows due to unfamiliar events seem hard to predict.
