Music in times of Corona - We shall overcome

##article.abstract##

Humankind has faced a myriad of life-threatening challenges in our history, reaching from the so-called Black Death (Yersinia Pestis) killing 40% of Europe´s population during the Middle Ages to Chernobyl and Harrisburg. This time a small virus, a simple chemical particle exploits our global way of life and has served as fertile ground for spreading around the world. Counter measures from medical sciences are rare, and specific drugs or vaccinations at the time of this writing thus far, do not exist. Death tolls are rising, and we are forced to lock down or shut down our social life and stay at home to slow down the travel speed of Corona, thus gaining time to develop therapeutic approaches.
