Lesson from South Korea on how to slow the COVID-19 spread | ABC News

27 thoughts on “Lesson from South Korea on how to slow the COVID-19 spread | ABC News”

1. One lesson is that when you get caught putting coronavirus in someones nose then the whole pandemic loses credibility.

2. Here are the difference. MOST OF Korean think government need to control the virus. It's government's responsibility to control the spread of virus. If they couldn't handle the virus like other countries, Korean would protest to impeach the president🙂

3. News Flash: There is No Pandemic and it can be easily Proven: Simply by the Death Rates — Country by Country (for 2020 vs 2019).

   Death Rates all over the world PROVE that there NEVER WAS a "Pandemic" — even among the nations that had very minimal to No lock-downs and closed almost nothing: i.e. Sweden, Mexico, South Korea, Turkmenistan, Brazil, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Tennessee, et al.

   Sweden: Where the Death Rate Declined (for 2020), in spite of minimal Lock-downs and few people wearing masks. In this case 9.165 for 2019 vs 9.145 for 2020. All other nations I checked showed a +/- 0.1 percent either way. Below is a Sample.

   We also checked about 50 More Countries (scattered all over the world) and found the same thing : +/- 0.1 percent (up or down) — meaning that we have been lied to about the whole thing.

4. The real reason why people don't care about the pandemic is because of their attention span and short-term needs.

18. It’s so obvious that most patient suffering from all this deadly virus are been enslaved to the antiviral and other supplementary Orthodox medicine which only helps to suppress the virus and not a cure.

20. I wish Americans really let go of their pride and for once, not be selfish. The way that American society works "NIMBY" and "Concentrated Individualism aka selfishness" has backfired this time. And probably continue on until they get an even bigger threat.

    https://youtu.be/_iXIADiDb_Q
    Just praying for your sins to be forgiven, and saying the name of Jesus at the end of your prayer will not make your sins that are red as scarlet be white as snow. In this time of disaster and pandemic like COVID-19 Fathe God is calling you now to come before His Word, and be guided into all Truth through the Spirit of Truth, and truly wash away your sins.
