ABSTRACT
The isolation, the mistrust and suspicion the virus causes make it alternatively "populist" and "sovereigntist". In case the people have forgotten that they are mortal, finite, contingent, lacking, ontological, wanting and so forth, the virus is to remind the reader, forcing the reader to meditate and correct their distraction, that of compulsive consumers. For the critical insight that is being developed around the virus, Covid-19 is rather the name of a science fiction film used to certify previous knowledge. However, if it is true that the virus displays the characteristic of an event, then it must also possess its "virtue". With the objective force of trauma, the virus shows that the whole is always implied in the part, that "everything is, in certain sense, in everything" and that in nature there are no autonomous regions that constitute an exception.
