    Phew. That might have been the fastest we ever made a video. Literally working day and night. A huge challenge in talking about Corona was that the science is ongoing. So we put in extra special care to have good sources for this video and will update them in the coming weeks and months. Check them out here: sites.google.com/view/sourcescorona
    We could not have made this video without experts who took time in one of the busiest periods of their own careers. A huge thanks especially to Dr James Gurney and Dr Max Roser of Our World in Data for helping us make sure the video was as accurate as it could be in a situation that is changing daily.
    Also a big shoutout to ourworldindata.org/ - the online publication for research and data on the world’s largest problems - and how to make progress solving them. Check out their site. It also includes a constantly updated page on the Corona Pandemic. Working together with them over the years has been a delight.
    Ok. We are very tired and are going to take a nap now. Stay healthy!

      The media only wants viewers and their viewers are the average person. Kurzgesagt viewers are intelligent and understand things that are not incredibly oversimplified. Kurzgesagt oversimplify stuff but not to the degree the mainstream media does because if the mainstream media simplified it that much their viewers wouldn't understand what they're talking about. Also Kurzgesagt isn't pushing an agenda what's takes 90% of the content out of the video so we end up with an 8 minute video that has great animation and actually informs people.

    Caught covid for the first time this month and as an immunocompromised person it was scary. Luckily I was able to get Paxlovid which is a medication given to those at a high risk of developing severe illness and makes it so covid can’t replicate inside your body. If it wasn’t for the medication I would have ended up in the hospital even though I’m fully vaccinated. After being so sick even with medication and vaccines it makes everything I went through in the beginning of the pandemic worth it. I didn’t leave my house for months, only having contact with my immediate family, I suffered extreme depression and isolation, I missed my high school graduation, and I lost friends over them not taking things seriously. But had I caught covid before I was vaccinated, before medications were available, and while the healthcare system was at the brink of collapse I without a doubt would have died. It’s good to know that everything I sacrificed saved me

      Major U.S cities have been fudging their stats to gain additional federal relief funding since C-19 hit the U.S. That skews the U.S data being fed to the CDC.
      N Italy had a massive elderly population and China obviously aren't reporting their true stats to this day.
      Inbetween we've allowed massive protests and full blown riots for weeks with nobody saying a word about how that affects any infection data.
      No politician is willing to admit that we have assuredly killed a large part of the global economy and we still:
      A. Don't know exactly how C-19 compares with Seasonal flu or SARS and likely never will.
      B. Haven't stopped the spread and most likely can't actually slow it down or stop it until we have a vaccine.
      Sweden is now reporting a huge drop in infections despite not locking down at all and apear to have achieved at least the beginning of herd immunity.
      We do now the avg age of C-19 death in the U.S is 80 and that's with the skewed data.
      So from an academic standpoint, we know sweet f*ckall about the actual infection/death rate but have slaughtered the global economy.

      Don Mega i agree with you that the real number of cases in China is higher than what it is reported now, but I don't think it would be much higher. The authorities are using extreme methods to control the spread, which are unimaginable in the west. Another sign are celebrity deaths. There are already some celebrities in the US died of COVID, which can be treated as a small "sample" of the population. While in China, almost no celebrity died of COVID, except a handful of them living in Wuhan. It is also a sign that the widespread of the pandemic was well controlled within the Wuhan area. You can also compare it to celebrity deaths in South Korea, another good example of what a society where pandemic is fully controlled looks like. Just an insight.

      @@benp9793 I don't believe that they mean "hours" or "years" to make a video in the traditional sense of this expression. I would guess they are referring to the cumulative amount of time needed for completion - i.e. the sum of all hours that all people working on the video spend. They can still work in parallel - if two people each spend 5 hours on a clip, it will take 5 hours, but cumulatively they will have spent 10hrs.

    Uploaded March 19, 2020. If there was one day I saw as an oh-shit moment, this was probably it. This was the day I took the bus over to the university campus, and found the libraries and classroom buildings closed. At that time, the bus service went to the weekend schedule through the whole week. Things were really gummed up for about the next four months.
    TTTT I was one of the lucky ones (maybe, in part, one of the careful ones, I like to think). Got the shot and boosters when they appeared and were recommended, kept my distance from others, wore masks but TTTT only when mandated, and did more or less all right. Eventually, about three years from Oh Shit Day, a couple of days of feeling miserable, and a positive Covid test. Oddly, no respiratory sx, even though there had been a few times, in the year or two preceding, with various respiratory sx but Covid test showing negative.
    The good news: We can mostly look forward toward the Future. The bad news: The Future is far from certain. Another pandemic could occur at any time, and godonlyknows how that might be handled.

      THE Port Commission of the Port of Houston Authority has approved a contract for three new US$35 million neopanamax electric dockside cranes for the Bayport Container Terminal's Wharf 5.
      The three new ship-to-shore cranes are expected to be operational in the summer of 2021 and will be the tallest to date at the port of Houston, standing at 48 metres under the spreader and will be capable of handling 18,000 TEU ships. The three cranes will expand the port's fleet of ship-to-shore cranes to 29 in total.
      The port also authorised ship channel expansion work that includes "critical-path" professional services for engineering, design and project coordination. The widening and deepening of the ship channel is required for improved safety and the future growth of regional and national commerce, reported the American Journal of Transportation.
      The port authority has proposed an expedited schedule whereby dredging could start by 2021 and the project be completed in 2024.
      Said Port of Houston executive director Roger Guenther: "Our facilities have handled close to 30 million tons of cargo through August, an increase of seven per cent over last year as both container volumes and steel have maintained their upward trends in 2019."
      Container throughput in the first eight months of the year totalled two million TEU, representing a year-on-year increase of 11 per cent. Mr Guenther said he expects to the port to handle three million TEU by year-end.
