...that practically everything will kill you.

It's a scientifically proven fact that seems to have walked right under noses of the health police.

Under Conti, central registries had been established for many diseases and addictions. Nazi Germany was a transparent society, where individuals were prevented from hiding their lives from the state -- as absurdly illustrated by the 1938 ban on attic storage.
