My personal collection of useful sources of information & things to do fight SARS-CoV-2 inspired by Steward Brand, Peter Schwartz, Chris Anderson, Whole Earth Catalog, Global Business Network and The Long Now Foundation.
This project is now part of the wirvsvirushackathon.org of the german government and called coronapathfinder.org.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is just a collection of information to my best knowledge. I'm no expert in this matter, just an ordinary inhabitant willing to something within personal reach. I did not doublecheck sources, checked whether sources were peer-reviewed, have been falsified after publication or turned out to be false in any way. Please give feedback: what to add, delete, change, highlight, verify! Be aware of people who just claim to be experts or seem to ignore facts.
