In 2021, as COVID-19 rampaged across the globe, I found myself alone in a small, quiet town in Switzerland. Free from the responsibilities of cooking for my family and the noise from busy streets, I enjoyed the peaceful sounds of birds singing.
My daily routine began with breakfast at 8 a.m., typically consisting of 200 milliliters (about 7 oz.) of milk, an egg, and a slice of toast. By 9 a.m., I started work. My main task was to leverage my scientific and medical expertise to help the public cope with the COVID-19 pandemic through a weekly live broadcast on an influential TV channel.
