are: knowledge of infection status, community engagement, adequate public health capacity, adequate health system capacity and border controls.
The study also found that an effective find, test, trace, isolate, support system is needed to safely reopen."No country does it perfectly, actually ... England does it particularly badly. Spain and France don't do terribly well either," said McKee. The study also said"the argument is strong" for countries to adopt a zero-Covid strategy, like New Zealand, which means eliminating domestic transmission. One reason was because of the growing burden of those who survived the virus but have symptoms for longer than expected, it said.The study found that countries including Singapore, Norway, Spain, and the UK, draw on expert advice to decide how to relax restrictions.
The researchers found that the principle that countries should not reopen until they have a high-quality surveillance system and have confirmed that infections are being suppressed,"has often been disregarded." "To some extent, you can divide countries in the world into two groups, the influenza ones and the SARS/MERS ones," said McKee."The Asian countries essentially came at this thinking, this is a disease that we really have to get on top of, because if we don't, it's going to be really bad.
The five Asia Pacific examples have also implemented strict border control measures, with Hong Kong, New Zealand, and Singapore keeping their borders closed to most visitors and mandating testing and 14-day quarantine, while European countries kept some borders open and were slow to require routine testing.
