However Vietnam are a population of 97+ million and are next to China - 35 total COVID deaths! There is best practice in dealing with pandemics and many of the Asian countries have done what it takes. The West generally haven’t.

Our governments have been in regular contact and I believe there’s a good amount of empathy and rooting for each other between the populations. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but other, larger countries such as Taiwan (24 million) have managed as well (actually rather better) than we have and the UK has been notably poor in its response - even based on its official figures. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Source of Gravity Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Ok times their numbers by a 100 or add a few thousands - they still put the UK or US in the shade. Taiwan, Hong Kong, South Korea the list goes on. Are NZs numbers false? US and the UK have dealt with the virus in a very ineffectual manner, there is very little debate about that.
