South Korea’s deepening social fractures amid COVID-19 success (Yoo-jung Lee, Yves Tiberghien, East Asia Forum)

South Korea was well prepared and acted rapidly at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in January 2020. It pioneered new methods of aggressive COVID-19 containment while avoiding a national lockdown, a hard border, or overly disruptive lifestyle measures. As a result, South Korea has suffered just 54 deaths per million as of 23 October  2021. This contrasts with a world average death rate of 628 per million.
