#22 Travelogue Turkey: Corona Geography

The virus itself may be interesting to scientists or scared citizens but Iโ€™m more interested in different countriesโ€™ response to that same little virus. Europe and Asia are obviously very different but what about Turkey? As expected, Turkeyโ€™s Covid-19 response is perfectly in the middle.

๐Ÿฆ  Turkey is in Europe:
The virus feels very much at home in Europe nowadays and also loves Turkey. People respond by wearing masks and following social distancing rules. Lockdowns and curfews are quite strict.

๐Ÿฆ  Turkey is in Asia:
People understand the rules more as a formality and wear masks outside where they donโ€™t actually help. They may not believe in the rules deeply because ultimately they believe not in science but in fate.

---Vocab---
๐Ÿ“response = reaction ๐Ÿ“lockdown = closing businesses because of the virus ๐Ÿ“curfew = rule that you canโ€™t go outside ๐Ÿ“formality = meaningless requirement ๐Ÿ“ultimately = in the end
