• Vietnam has had no deaths from Covid. None.

    Vietnam is an interesting one. When I was there, the safety and wellness of its population never really struck me as one of the governments top priorities, so their 'crush this shit' approach is curious. Cynically, i) it's a great opportunity for the party to re-assert their power, and ii) their numbers are probably propaganda. And iii) how they 'get out' of where they are now is a good question - they will seriously need to up their capability to test / quarantine when / if international travel opens back up.

    But we will see.

  • Vietnam has had no deaths from Covid. None.

    I read this to say the Vietnam War has had no deaths from Covid. None.

    And i was like, yes, that is a true statement... Odd, but true.
