Where is the best country to fight the epidemic?

As the first country in the world to control the epidemic, China is undoubtedly ranked first. The second place is Germany, which continues the rigorous style of the Germans, with low mortality and strict epidemic prevention and control system. In addition, Singapore, Japan, South Korea and other countries are also called role models.

After the emergence of COVID-19 epidemic virus, it is necessary to do a good job in epidemic prevention and control as soon as possible. For example, several countries are best at fighting the epidemic, including China, German, Swiss, Japanese, Israeli and many other countries. After the outbreak, these countries announced the epidemic prevention and control measures as soon as possible.

Global epidemic:

There are more than 327 10000 confirmed cases in the world, and the global epidemic situation is still grim, and the epidemic situation in many countries continues to rebound. Institutional research in the United States shows that COVID-19 has mutated now, so the epidemic virus is more serious. Although there are still some countries with very serious epidemics, there are also many countries with the best anti-epidemic ability.

Researchers are committed to collecting global data and comparing different anti-epidemic measures taken by different countries, hoping to make a more accurate prediction of the new epidemic stage. A topic that experts are most interested in now is: If we know what measures are particularly effective in containing the epidemic, we can control the virus and let people live a relatively normal life.

The researchers wrote: "Our research results show that compared with strict blockade measures, social alienation and changes in population behavior have less impact on society and economy, but at the same time they can effectively control the development of COVID-19 epidemic."

However, the study authors also explained that they were not sure which measures were particularly effective in the study. Because most countries have not always chosen a specific strategy, but chose a holistic model to curb the spread of the virus. Moreover, the spread of the virus is different in different countries.

Scientists are studying 170 interventions around the world:

At present, under the guidance of the World Health Organization (WHO), the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine has provided a platform of LSHTM, which has collected hundreds of different epidemiological interventions that have been implemented around the world. Teams from different scientific institutions should be able to use these data.

In addition, according to Nature, a group of scientists from Vienna studied 170 interventions in 52 countries/regions, including some smaller measures (such as floor stickers indicating the minimum distance) and larger decisions (such as closing schools). The Oxford team also recorded 13 interventions in more than 100 countries.
