Politician Karoline Preisler contracted a severe case of COVID-19 and had to be hospitalized. At a demonstration of corona skeptics, she aims to confront those who trivialize the virus, conspiracy theorists and the far right.

Will they listen or will her message fall on deaf ears? A report by Viktoria Kleber.
