Head of the Public Health Office speaks out: no evidence for all COVID measures, lockdowns and curfews were complete nonsense


In a widely noted lecture as part of the Bad Nauheim Talks, Prof. Dr. René Gottschalk, former chief medical director of the Frankfurt Public Health Office, voiced sharp criticism of German COVID policy.


The lecture of November 4, 2025, commented on by Prof. Stefan Homburg, documents Gottschalk’s remarks and highlights in particular the discrepancy between political decision-making and scientific evidence.

Gottschalk’s core criticism: misguided measures and political pressure

Gottschalk, a specialist in infectiology and public health, explains in his lecture that many political decisions during the pandemic were based on false assumptions. He is particularly critical of the so-called “lockdowns,” curfews, and quarantine measures, which—according to Gottschalk—were neither effective nor evidence-based.

One central example is the reporting on Bergamo: the dramatic images of military trucks full of the deceased were misinterpreted or deliberately exaggerated in order to create acceptance for drastic measures. A planned German delegation that was supposed to scientifically investigate the situation on site was prevented through political means.

The assessment of deaths is also questioned: in Germany, the average age of COVID fatalities was 83 years. Many died “with or from” the virus, not necessarily because of it alone. Data from the Diamond Princess, a cruise ship on which seven people died during quarantine in February 2020—fewer than would statistically have been expected without the virus—support Gottschalk’s thesis that the threat posed by the virus was often overstated.

Homburg’s commentary: an insider speaks out

Prof. Stefan Homburg, who commented on the lecture, emphasizes that Gottschalk’s statements are particularly explosive because they come from an insider who himself was involved in implementing the measures during the pandemic. Homburg points to the discrepancy between political pressure and medical evidence: public health offices were forced to implement measures that were not scientifically justified, while warnings from experts were simultaneously sanctioned.

Homburg also highlights that Sweden, as the only European country, successfully relied on evidence-based measures and thereby achieved the lowest excess mortality in Europe. This stands in stark contrast to the massive infringements on fundamental rights in Germany.

Politics prevented the vaccination status of the deceased from being recorded on death certificates. This would have made it possible to compile statistics regarding the effectiveness of the vaccinations. But politics did not want to know that.

Consequences and lessons

Homburg further criticized the fact that those responsible who warned early on about ineffective measures were removed for political reasons. Homburg interprets this as a warning to other experts: anyone within the authorities who openly denounces mismanagement risks losing their own career.

Homburg’s conclusion is clear: “Fundamental rights were restricted on the basis of false assumptions, the measures produced no demonstrable benefit, and lockdowns caused additional harm.” Gottschalk’s lecture thus provides a striking basis for critically reflecting on pandemic policy—first-hand and from one of those responsible themselves.
