HI Robin, thanks for your interesting class! In Italy we’re starting to come back very gradually to our normal life. The curve has been flattened and started to decrease after strong restrictions!

Hi everyone, I’m Brazilian and I live in São Paulo the city with more numbers of people infected by Covid-19. Unfortunately, the news are not good for us. The curve isn’t decrease because people are not staying at home so the deaths and infected are just growth. Our president doesn’t care about the worst condition of health, just concerned about economic problems. For me, journalism is very important to keep the population informed of the real situation of health in Brazil and the importance to stay at home.
