  This article discusses Germany's successful response to COVID-19. Despite having a high number of cases, they have been able to minimize deaths by effectively communicating scientific facts about the virus to the public, prioritizing building and tracking the number of beds available in hospitals, and offering mental health services and easy access to healthcare. I think it is interesting to note that Germans are notoriously "extremely fact-based and cautious," so it is unclear how successful these protocols would be in another country like the United States.

  Good find, Anya. This week we'll be listening to an NPR article comparing China's and India's response to COVID-19. . . and the question of civic culture/mindset that predominates in different countries comes up there as well. Good fuel for discussion!
  
  Also, please be sure to comment on at least one classmate's post as well.
