Someone from Berlin here, my observed reality is quite different. Hospitals are massively preparing for the expected infections, people are largely staying at home and business are reorganizing to handle the crisis.

Sure there is still an observable portion of the citizens which seems to be in denial, but I guess this was to be expected.

Ah I got my information from someone in the NRW area and it was about half a week ago, I just synced up with them today and they said things are changing, but it does seem like a rather late response. Was mostly a counterpoint to the statement that Germany is handling this well.
