Health is the most important thing in life. The current protective measures around the globe in connection with the spread of the Corona Virus Covid-19 show how great the fear and helplessness is. Above all, this pandemic has highlighted the extent of the global dependence on China as a supplier of medicines or medical ingredients and protective clothing. Supply chains will get shorter. Individuals and societies will be more focused on health and wellness. In view of the time after the current Corona Crisis it is expected that politics and the economy will reorganize and reposition themselves.
