Zusammenfassung
The authors recall Rudolf Steiner’s meditative words
during the Spanish flu pandemic, a century ago, and
correlate them with the current COVID-19 pandemic.
The peculiar symptoms of this disease are mentioned,
such as the loss of sense of smell and its phenomenological
study, fear and its action in the respiratory
system and the peculiar type of pain. The genus
epidemicus as the driving principle that motivates
an illness is contextualized to the present day and
related to functional threefoldness. Anthroposophical
thinking is developed to get to the etiological
medicine for COVID-19: Chelidonium majus. A casuist
with 20 patients is cited and the subsequent experience
with 110 other cases.
