It goes back to @Beezerk post on the previous page. Just how?
. Cant really mention govt except to say groundless optimism is not a strategy.
In the aftermath of all this we really need to send a team of people across to those two countries to see how they handled this. They are well used to handling SARS scares and that has obviously stood them in good stead.Perhaps but look at Japan and S Korea, both large populations and large economies, busy airport hubs, but a compliant population that are more used to dealing with epidemics and mask wearing. Numbers are incredibly low. Lockdown is not even permitted in Japan.
The covid deniers here are everywhere including influential social media 'personalities', louder than ever

I read an article that said although Japan has fared well in the pandemic it's not clear why as they have not been particularly good at handling measures. My experience of Japanese people is they are more likely to abide by rules than we are, German people are also more like this.Perhaps but look at Japan and S Korea, both large populations and large economies, busy airport hubs, but a compliant population that are more used to dealing with epidemics and mask wearing.

True but they also had the power to interrogate bank accounts and their app also acted as a gps tracker so if they failed to say exactly where they had been they could be fined.
Completely different strategies! And the highlighted bit is likely the key! Just consider the number of (supposedly sensible) golfers blatantly breaking instructions!Perhaps but look at Japan and S Korea, both large populations and large economies, busy airport hubs, but a compliant population that are more used to dealing with epidemics and mask wearing.

Do you think they are also healthier into older age than us ? Obesity diet etc seems better. No facts on that, just an inkling.
My MiL had a 2 week exchange with a Japanese family a good few years ago, part of a church thing. Diet is much healthier but they have a real aversion to milk and other calcium rich foods. Apparently they have a big problem with bone strength and related issues in later years. Nearly ideal but could do with a little tweak.
