Nationally and internationally, mathematical models of the infection process in the corona pandemic have had an enormous political impact. However, the model-heavy nature of the political decision-making processes has also been widely criticized. From both a technical and a sociological perspective, criticism of maneuvers appears to be necessary due to numerous indications. The extent to which the performance of government-related epidemic modeling in particular has met the challenges should be critically questioned and evaluated in wider circles. Model uncertainties and the complexity of the problem of the spread of infectious diseases should be given greater attention. There needs to be a deeper awareness that mathematical models cannot replace practical medical experience and classical concepts for controlling complex systems.
