Did you really mean to say no one has paid any price for the media's fear mongering of co-vid? Haven't you heard about all the emerging reports of damage the various gene therapies have caused among the fearful but trusting masses? "Safe and effective" has taken first place among the baneful Orwellian slogans of the new millennium.

On a lighter note, I note w/ grim amusement your mention of Marcel Schwob's seeking then fleeing of a tropical paradise. I wish his Swiss namesake Klaus the same ill fortune.

You know, I was kind of wondering if SchwOb / SchwAb were somehow related. Marcel Schwob was jewish, from both parents. His father, Schwob, was an important diplomat. His mother was from the Alsace region, single name Cahun (Cahun = Cohen?).

Now, our friend from the WEF, Mr. Schwab, seems to be Swiss-German, at least according to Wikipedia's "Early life". Family mostly from Switzerland.

So, no direct relation.

I ended up writing a whole new post just because of the Schwob/Schwab confusion. :D And because today is the first day of the WEF's annual meeting in Davos.
