  • The Company's History of ZEISS
    The Company’s History of ZEISS - At a Glance (Original appeared in 1996 in a publication issued by the Regional Center for Political Education, Thuringia. Reproduced here with the kind permission of the authors: Wolfgang Mühlfriedel and Edith Hellmuth.) How it all started On 17 November 1846, mechanic Carl Zeiss, who was thirty years of age at the time, opened a small workshop and store in Jena's Neugasse No. 7. Equipped with theoretical knowledge and work experience, as well as contacts in the fields of natural sciences and mathematics at the University of Jena, within just a few months, Zeiss had established a customer base for the servicing or customized production of scientific tools and instruments. He also provided glasses, chemical weighing scales, drawing instruments and telescopes. The positive development of his business in the first year inspired Zeiss to hire journeymen and apprentices in 1847. He also rented two rooms in Wagnergasse No. 34 to do his work. In the summer of 1847, following the advice of his teacher, the botanist Mattias Jacob Schleiden, Zeiss devoted his attention to the building of simple microscopes. In September 1847, he produced the first low-power microscopes. At the beginning of the 1850s, there was an increase in the demand for observation instruments from the Zeiss Workshops, which now enjoyed a good reputation among microscopists due to their meticulous workmanship. At the time, the level of interest shown by scientists and medical professionals in compound microscopes was growing because these were the only instruments that provided the higher magnifications they wanted.

Demnach ist Adipositas ein eigenständiger Ri- sikofaktor für schwere Verläufe, berichten die Forscher um Annemarie Docherty aus Edinburgh in einer Preprint-Publikation auf der Plattform „MedRxiv“. Die Analyse ergab, dass vor allem Personen mit Adipositas (BMI über 30) und Männer ein erhöhtes Sterberisiko hatten. Resultat: Mitten in der Corona-Krise hat die bri- tische Regierung eine breit angelegte Kampagne gegen Überge- wicht und Fettleibigkeit in der Bevölkerung gestartet. Fettleibigkeit erhöhe das Risiko schwerer Erkrankungen sowie auch die Gefahr, an einer Corona-Infektion zu sterben, warnte Gesundheitsminister Matt Hancock. In einer Mitteilung der britischen Regierung wird Fettleibigkeit als „Zeitbombe“ bezeichnet.
