The View from Germany

Bad Arolsen, Germany:

The hardest thing about this whole situation was that I couldn’t see my friends. At the beginning it was said that we didn’t have to go to school just 2 weeks before our Easter break.

But as the virus spread further and further, 2 weeks turned into 9. We can only meet with one person from another household and we have to wear a mask when shopping.
I only leave my house for shopping. At the moment you cannot do any sport because you can hardly keep the 1.5 meter distance.

I hope that the restrictions will be lifted as soon as possible so that you can do things with your friends again.

At home I feel best at the moment. I would not like to be stuck in another country and not see my family. I pass my time on the computer or I help my father in his garage. We can only go shopping with a mask and the shops are very full.

At the beginning I only had school on the Internet, but now I go to school twice a week.
In the beginning, many people adhered to the rules, but now people are taking it more and more relaxed. I’ve heard how parties were celebrated with my classmates. Many people don’t take the situation seriously enough. Stay at home and save lives.
