Good evening,
such a corona infection is inconvenient in most cases.
But not in all.
Maybe, just maybe, Mayor Peter Feldmann (SPD) reacted a little bit relieved to his positive PCR result.
So he can simply disappear a few days before the possible deselection.
It is still unclear whether Feldmann will be available for public statements on Sunday, the day when Frankfurt's citizens decide on his political future.
If the corona test is negative after five days of isolation on Saturday, Feldmann will come to the Römer on Sunday evening, at least his spokesman says.
What else was important today, how the future of inner cities is,

Deputy head of the regional section of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

Dual sites at risk:
Some messages seem to repeat themselves.
It was only two years ago that the merged department store group Galeria Karstadt Kaufhof had to seek rescue in a protective shield procedure in the first corona lockdown.
At that time, almost 40 branches were closed and 4,000 jobs were lost.
Now more than 40 of the remaining 131 department stores are to be closed again.
Which?
So far, we can only speculate about this.
Marcel Schäuble, union secretary for trade in the Verdi state district of Hesse, assumes that so-called double locations could be affected.
In other words, shopping streets where former Karstadt and Kaufhof branches, which now operate under the name Galeria, are often only a few hundred meters apart.
In Hesse, this is still the case in three cities: Wiesbaden, Darmstadt and Frankfurt.
In an interview with business editor Petra Kirchhoff, Schäuble places clear expectations on CEO René Benko.
He makes billions in profits every year through his real estate company Signa Holding and has to become more financially involved in the current situation.
Instead, according to the union secretary's assessment, it is becoming increasingly clear that the owner is only interested in owning the property and not in the future of the department stores.
Poll about Feldmann:
Anyone who tries to work through the classic small talk topics in a sociable but still unfamiliar group in Frankfurt will fail.
Weather?
Too warm.
Corona?
What else was that?
Feldman!
Yes, everyone has an opinion about him.
That's what a new association called "Initiative New Frankfurt" thought and commissioned a survey for the referendum on Sunday.
The opinion research institute Insa Consulere, commissioned by the initiative, interviewed 500 people from Frankfurt by telephone and online.
61 percent of those surveyed are said to have stated that they wanted to go to the polls - they ticked "yes, sure".
And if you believe the trend researchers, things are getting tight for Feldmann.
52 percent of those who stated that they wanted to cast their vote said they definitely wanted to vote out the incumbent mayor, and another 20 percent tended to do so.
Now those who attended a statistics seminar during their studies and for whom exactly one rule has stuck will cry out: A survey is only representative if there are 1000 or more participants.
So what can be interpreted from the numbers?
Quite a lot – at least that is what opinion research institute Insa claims.
With 500 respondents, the basic significance is not lower, but only the error tolerance is greater than with 1000 participants, it is then more than 2.5 percent.

Manni, the reasonably nice Christmas tree:
In times of crisis, people want stability - and in Frankfurt this stability includes the knowledge that the Christmas tree that stands on the Römer in the winter months is characterized by a high degree of ugliness.
Crooked, bald, broken!
This is what a Christmas tree should look like that touches the hard heart of the Hessians.
Because you can complain so nicely under him and about him.
And now this?
The tree, which incidentally was given the name Manfred, or “Manni” for short, is reasonably intact.
A bit fat maybe, as our author Matthias Trautsch writes.
But that suits Manfred.
Helped it survive the transport without major damage.
But no worry.
Manni is only of particular beauty in comparison to the trees that have been selected over the past few years.
He still has enough flaws.
He already passed the first test in front of a critical audience on Tuesday.
Manni was referred to as "firewood" and insulted as "unkempt".
So everything is in order.
By the way: The Christmas market will open on November 21 at 5:30 p.m.
