Contact & Inquiries

I am very online and regularly post on Bluesky. I share my latest work and thinking in the Protagonist Science substack or on Medium usually.

Other inquiries? Requests for comment or interview? Ping me here!

Free Access to reader-only version of the book:

While I can not gift away the books for free because of printing and other costs; I believe this topic is too important to be kept behind a paywall.

Anybody who wants to read how the pandemic began deserves access to good information; so if you can not afford to buy the book or ebook, please reach out to me with a quick explanation and I will provide access to a digital reader-only version* for free that can not be downloaded and copied, no questions asked.

Just write in the form below “Digital reader-only version” and a sentence or two about your circumstances (for example: “Hi, I am a student in Austria/Mexico/Thailand, can’t afford to buy but really want to read it”) and I will grant access to the book to you via your email address.

*this offer is subject to release date of the English version for readers outside of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. By gaining access to the readers-only version, the reader promises to not share, copy, distribute, claim copyright or commercialize the content of the book in any shape or form. Infringement of these conditions might be subject to legal action.
