what is it like to be on the corona island? no one can leave for the mainland and no one can come in. approximately one half of the island's population is infected. the infection rate per capita is one of the highest in europe, if not in the world. the covid—19 infection situation in saaremaa is quite serious. we might have 1000 hospitalisations by april 20. so, we need help in our hospital, we have 147 beds. this is not enough for 1000 patients.

hello world, susan here from saaremaa. the pile of things you see behind, these are the home deliveries that i have to go and deliver today. so, we are now in one of the neighbourhoods in kuressaare here, waiting for our clients to come downstairs and then we will leave the groceries to her safely, without any contact. people adapt to change, for example, my hairdresser is now the one labelling the packages in a local meat factory and nobody is sitting at home and thinking, 0k, let's see what tomorrow brings, people are taking action.
