China: Adhering to the health protocols prevented large spread.
Now, more than a year after the first case of the coronavirus was registered, China has been able to overcome corona as the first country in the world by using various measures, including the assistance of the people, and life of one billion and 400 million Chinese to a large extent has returned to normal.
However, health protocols are still strictly observed in China, so that no one has the right to travel without a mask at all, and social distance is still observed and hand washing is mandatory.
One of the factors in China’s success in controlling the coronavirus, in addition to the above, was the use of automatic and manual patient tracking systems and their communication with others. For example, when a Chinese woman left home before the end of her 14-day quarantine and was deceived by the management of a residential complex, health officials, with the help of the police and the woman herself, were able to identify 77 people she had contacted several times.
The total number of people infected with the coronavirus in China has reached 90,000 so far. The number of internally ill people in this country has been reduced to zero, but less than 10 cases are imported daily in this country. A total of 4,636 people died in China.
South Korea
South Korea’s response to the Coronavirus has been impressive. Relying on its experience in managing the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) (MERS), it has been able to flatten the curve just by persuading people to follow health protocols without closing businesses, quarantining, or taking too many strict measures like in other high-income countries. Following health measures, including wearing a mask, keeping social distance, and reducing traffic.
Japan
The rate of coronavirus infection in Japan has so far reached 66 per million, which is a relatively low rate. In this country, a total of about 440,000 people have been infected and 8,300 people have died. This is a low figure, while Japan has all the conditions that make a country vulnerable to the corona, but it has never taken strict measures like China, and the figures have not risen like other countries.
Research shows that with the spread of the corona, the elderly are more affected than the rest of the population, although the number of elderly people in Japan is higher than any other country in the world and population density is very high in major cities, Tokyo has an acceptable record in the fight against the deadly virus.
