Topic discussed: COVID-19
Cultural and/or linguistic topics you and your partner learned: Today Sara and I talked about how differently COVID-19 was handled in Austria versus specifically Florida. Even though cases are starting to rise again in Austria, we realized how the places we live in vary when we both say that cases are rising. She told me that in the beginning, the lockdown in Austria was incredibly enforced and she did not leave her apartment for a long time. Compared to Florida, out lockdown did not last as long as hers and there was a difference in how the population of the US and Florida reacted to the lockdown and pandemic in general than the population of Austria. She was confused to hear that in Florida our governor is trying to fire administration and teacher for enforcing masks in school and that in Austria she is still taking her classes online unlike some of her friends who say that mostly everyone wears a masks to class willingly.
