GT data from January 1 to May 16, 2020, were extracted for all six countries. We selected January 1 as the starting date to assess baseline interest before the pandemic in Europe, and May 16 because it allowed for data collection before, during, and after the lockdown (varying depending on the government measures in each country).

Day-to-day relative search volume (RSV) data were retrieved from GT on May 19, 2020. RSVs were calculated by GT as follows: search results are proportionate to the time and location of a query. Each data point is divided by the total searches from that geographical region and the time range it represents to compare relative popularity. The resulting numbers of a topic are then scaled 0-100 on the basis of its proportion to all searches on all topics.
