We have some hints and requests to you, so that we can publish your contributions on the blog:

• For each question (see above) a single post will be created. Therefore, the questions should be answered individually.
• Please do not answer all questions at once. It would be better if you send us one or two answers per week to keep the blog as up-to-date as possible. Please start with question number 1 plus a question of your choice.
• It is possible to send video or text files via WhatsApp or WeTransfer (https://wetransfer.com/ à It is free and easy to use and allows <2GB upload). If you decide to send us videos, please use your smartphones for shooting. The sound quality is usually good if you speak directly into it and the videos look very authentic. Don’t care about cutting or the video format. Karl-Friedrich König, a filmmaker will do this job for you.
• It is important to mention the question in the video/audio out loud before you answer it with your contribution. Please state your first name, date and place each time.
• Please let me know by when we can expect the contributions to plan the upload.
• For video and audio contributions, please send me a short written explanation that we can attach.
• We would like to point out that your contributions will be available on the http://global-corona.blog as well as the videos on http://youtube.com and our YouTube channel for technical reasons.

In addition to the answers, it would be interesting if you would provide us with pictures of "corona phenomena" in your region/country. These can be impressions from everyday life, such as empty streets, supermarket shelves, etc. You can send them to us either as a photo or as a video of at least 10 seconds. They will then be included in the total contribution.

We would like to thank you very much for being there and participating!
