A surreal story, not what you think

This is NOT a straight forward story about a pandemic, this is a chaotic surreal story that feels like characters are suppose to be stand in for different elements of society rather then real people. I felt much at lost but with the feeling that it would have made a bit more sense if I was from 1970s Germany as it feels like it might be making commentary of that time and place. A fun story, but not the sort of thing to claim to be part of some sort of predictive programing or a serious take on a pandemic.
