Translation: Merkel has escaped to the safety of her underground bunker to avoid persecution for her crimes against Germany and the German people.

Here's hoping she's got a cyanide capsule and a pistol!

It would be the first time a German head of state died in such a way.

This would be my guess as well. These people have strict lists of people who have access to them for security reasons. Merkel getting wu-flu of all people, would be a hilarious breach of control, because it would show the German government is vulnerable to bioterrorism or bio-warfare. Not exactly a weakness you want to broadcast to the entire globe. Hard for me to believe South American leaders have their shit together better for biological contagion threats than Germany...

Apply the Adrenochrome angle.
We can't apply multiple angles.
Either it's real or its not, can't be a little bit here and a little bit there. Its all not nothing.

If you've ever seen the Kingsmen you'll notice it's a documentary

I usually don't wish ill on people, not even people I hate. But for Merkel, I'll make an exception. May this demon rot in hell for eternity.

Sadly I think the only way Germany is going to get out from under her is when she is no longer physically capable of serving in her current role.

Best thing to do is take away their money.

fake news. there is no valid test for corona, and there is no good numbers on it at all, it's designed to fuel the panic.

She's childless so naturally she'll want to lash out at everyone else, I bet she escalate things and start demanding Bill Gates style microchipping / testing, cashless society etc. All for the "greater good".

Actually, she went shopping yesterday, they made quite a show of it

Hmm. That makes zero sense. Head of state mixes with un filtered common folk with high risk of contraction. Something is very fishy. It's a set up for something else coming down the pipe. She may suicide and this is perfect viral death cover stories.

Good, at least one good thing comes out this. The horrible, scheming imbecile who has always managed to find a way to stay in power in Germany despite not having the support of the people might finally be removed.

Die, wench, die. (Don’t worry, it’s German.)
