(Southeast Asia/Pandemic) Is there a way out of Southeast Asia’s COVID-19 disaster? (East Asia Forum)

July 21, 2021

Swee Kheng Khor writes for East Asia Forum: The second year of the COVID-19 pandemic has not been kind to Southeast Asian countries. The region is experiencing accelerated national-level tragedies played out in accelerated speed. Only three Southeast Asian countries have any semblance of control. Brunei has had no community transmission since May 2020. Singapore has done comparatively more tests (2.2 tests per capita to Indonesia’s mere 0.04 per capita). And Vietnam has the region’s lowest mortality rate (0.71 per million — impressive given its population of 96 million).
