With regard to Covid 19 confirmed cases and deaths attributed to same, can anyone explain the following and should we be looking deeper into why. Believe me, these are not all third world countries hiding the true statistics, the world is looking on so they can’t get away with that.
Vietnam cases 353, Singapore 43,246 cases, dead 26. Malaysia cases 8606, 121 dead. South Korea cases 12,602, dead 282. Thailand 3162 cases, 58 dead. Myanmar 293 cases, 6 dead. UK cases 310,250, dead 43,514. What is happening with SE Asia, are there lessons to be learnt. Even Thailand and Vietnam have Today been given green status by the UK, while the likes of Spain are still amber ? So someone believes the statistics, they are not all fake!
I do not know the answer, but I do know lockdown was fast and enforced to military standards, track and trace has been effectively operating for 3 months, No flights to or from these countries or even regional flights for months. And strict quarantine, plus attitudes are totally different with regard to conforming to advice, rules and regulations. These are not all police states, but there has been enforcement of the regulations, combined with reasonable consequences if not adhered to. I really don’t know, but they have done something right.
