Japan seems to have done incredibly well with a population of 130 million and under 1,000 deaths. Whatever they did started a rapid downward trend from early May to currently with very few daily infections or deaths.

Ryanair flights arriving at Malaga from U.K today no issues.

Apparently precious little follow up checks are done. I was listening to LBC this morning and the regular host Andrew Castle even said during a phone in regarding this that he personally knew quite a number of people who have arrived and gone through the procedure over the last few weeks and have ne...

It's becoming clear (to me) what this virus is really all about. It's a worldwide smokescreen for the Chinese to expand their territory. The big problem we will have to face one day is who will stop China from world domination. It's almost past the economic, practical, aggressive and geographical p...

Good news indeed, just watched the Scientist on the Daily briefing and he was very upbeat and positive and interestingly said they'd stopped looking at hydroxychloroquine as it had no positve effects at all, in fact had quite the opposite "The Recovery Trial, running since March, also looked at the ...

Yes, the UK remains a member state until the end of the year, but it is not in the Schengen area so the border changes do not apply.

So you're saying U.K Citizens cannot enter Spain as Tourists from 21st June?

Thank you Mark, very interesting article, fair play to Vietnam. Glad that they were really on the ball and not just ignoring the situation, hope its a similar situation for the other countries I mentioned in my original post.

Re vietnam. Just listening to a dr on the news and said country got mentioned along with others in the area that had excellent track and trace systems which kept numbers low. So theres an answer for that country Thanks Elusive, thats a more sensible summation as nearby Thailand is also very low and...

"Your last sentence is most odd, its a global pandemic and as such I imagine virtually every country is taking this as seriously as Spain has. I don't think Spain is any more obsessed with Covid-19 than any other nation from what I can see." I agree other that in some countries they have other epid...

Yes I get where you're coming from that Africa maybe aren't counting but I would have thought something would have leaked to the press to support this if say Ethiopia had huge excess deaths or any other African country for that matter.

Lack of movement. Ppl coming into the country with it etc

Doubtful, Ethiopia as a case in point never had a real lockdown and has had flights arriving throughout from all over the place...U.S U.K Germany etc

What I cannot get my head around is the very small number of deaths in places such as Vietnam whose population is 97 million yet Zero Deaths, Uganda population 46 million and zero deaths, Tanzania population 60 million and 21 deaths, Ethiopia 115 million and only 35 deaths...just can't logically wor...

Sounds like a very positive and efficient system and as they say was being planned anyway for over a year. And as stated will give more than double the time when a face to face is needed.
