South Korea vs. World comparison - share of people vaccinated for COVID-19 -

even more effective than just vaccines are socially distancing. no point getting the vaccine then getting into a tiny room full of people

thats why there CANT be kpop concerts until several more years

Also some contries like mine , Sweden, have had a high rate of people that have had Covid compared to contries like SK that have very low rate. Some of those will not take the vaccin because if you recently have had Covid you already have protection similar or better than the vaccin gives you. So the different in protection is probablly even greater than it shows in the charts.

It seems like an obsession at this point. Why follow SK like that? In terms of priorities I'd be more worried about USA vaccination slowdown (which isn't unique to USA sadly) as their impact in the world is way bigger or countries like Russia, China, and India or local giants like Brazil rather than SK.

SK is more relevant for this forum sure, but you already created like 2 topics focused on these. Just update these. This topic brings nothing new that the old threads would not cover (unless they got locked for some reason like time). Do you have some weird agenda for some weird reason not explained in past threads? Are you living in South Korea? It would be more relevant to people like me who have relatives living there. In this case, I can understand this weird fixation. Just Kpop as a justification is kinda getting on weird territory.

Like I said in the other topics, they may only catch up around September if they wanna reach their November goal post. Might as well just recheck around September and see how they are doing. It's not a curious case or anything unique or special as it was already discussed in previous threads. At least, I don't see it deserving so many threads about the same thing.

We are quite low in Australia. Only about 30% so far and the slow rollout hasn’t helped and the indecision by state premiers.

Canada is doing well. A delay in Vaccine delivery held them up for anyone getting vaccinated.

Canada lags in vaccinations but expects to catch up quickly

Canada once was hailed as a success story in dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, faring much better than the United States in deaths and infections because…

Canada bought vaccines early . When it came to delivery they kept being ignored.

Ｗe have been short of vaccines here in Taiwan.

People basically are prone to get their jabs as soon as they can.

We did not buy vaccines early as Covid caused very limited damage to the country since pandemic began, political craps got in the way when we wanted to buy them sooner.

Shxt.

That sux.

Found a recent article about it. A complex situation, sounds like it is recently getting worked out.

Looks like we need more good guys with more F-35s around here.

What you said it above , is just *significantly* WRONG in COVID-19 Strategy.

The *main* feature of *VACCINE* (COVID-19) , is that IF you still get sick

with COVID-19 (which happens) , the likelihood to be HOSPITALIZED

is MUCH LESS ... And the likelihood to RECOVER in general is MUCH MORE.

And the SEVERITY of SICKNESS is likely to be MUCH LESS with VACCINE.

Nothing wrong with 'Social Distancing' , but it is NO SUBSTITUTE for VACCINE.

So , my guess too , this is NOT a USA strategy to annoy S.KOREA either.

I'm surprised, but cool!
