        Fair enough.. I think previous pandemic experience definitely helped them.. cat's out of the bag in the western countries now though, the #zerocovid ship has long sailed. Lesson learned I guess.

        Singapore and Victoria, Australia had very high case rates once, but both got numbers down to zero.

        I remember last summer when my city was down to four cases and I thought it was almost over. Hopefully Australia and other places do better!

        Great! In Vietnam we go most days without new cases. Fewer than 50 reported deaths and fewer than1600 reported cases total since February 2020
