Top 10 quốc gia có ca mắc covid năm 2022

Some are winning - some are not

which countries do best in beating covid-19?

Notice: New coronavirus variants first observed in the UK, South Africa, or Brazil have begun to spread throughout the world. These particular variants are alarming because they are more transmissible (and may also be more deadly).

Plots show normalized daily new cases of COVID-19 vs time, with a 7-day average.

”Recent new/day” is a measure of new cases per day, averaged over the last week.

Actions to win

Act Quickly

Don’t wait for “more data” or results from complicated models. It isn’t too late to start now. The earlier you act, the earlier things can go back to normal.

Isolate away from home

Set up facilities to isolate infected individuals from their family members. Roughly 80% of transmission in Wuhan was within the home.

Strict travel restrictions

If you are in a green zone with little to no community transmission, impose travel restrictions and reopen the local economy. For red zones, restrict outward travel to avoid infecting others. For essential travel, have mandatory quarantines to avoid spreading the virus.

Massive amount of testing

Testing allows you to identify infected individuals and separate them from the rest of the community.

clean air for everyone

Reducing transmission by having everyone wear a face mask is simple, cheap, and highly effective.

Improving ventilation of indoor spaces is also vital for reducing transmission.

Continue practicing social distancing

Stay away from crowded areas and keep as much distance between nearest neighbors as possible. Those with comorbidities (the elderly, overweight, immunocompromised, etc.) should be the last to be reintroduced into society, as they are the most vulnerable.

Be patient. Don’t reopen too early

Reopening too early runs the risk of triggering exponential growth again. This might erase all of the benefits gained from the lockdown so far. It could increase the total amount of deaths, overwhelm the medical system, and create a scenario where another lockdown is necessary.

Implement contact tracing

Hiring contact tracers and adopting digital contact tracing technologies will save lives, create jobs, and allow for an earlier return to normalcy.

Reminder: COVID-19 is airborne

Most transmission occurs through small respiratory droplets, called aerosols, that can build up in a room like cigarette smoke. Click below for simple hacks that can be used to clean your air.

Frequently asked questions

What are the classification criteria?

In order to completely contain the virus, new cases per day must go to zero. Green countries are either at that point or very close to it. Yellow countries are those which could reach that point within a reasonable time frame. They still have to get lower to be green. Red countries are either going the wrong way, staying constant, or going down very slowly.

While some yellow curves might look similar to green curves, comparing the total numbers of new cases per day will often explain the differences in classification.

Why not show cases per capita?

Cases per capita is an important metric. However, when it comes to eliminating the virus, the number of new cases per day must be zero. The fraction of the population that is infected is not what matters. If a country has 100 new cases per day, that provides many routes for the virus to spread. It does not matter whether the population is 1,000,000 or 10,000,000.

Why are all of the peaks the same height?

These plots are adjusted for each country in order to better show the data. The vertical axis is plotted in arbitrary units, in order to easily compare the shapes of the curves. As you can see from the countries which have been successful in fighting COVID-19, it only takes about 5-7 weeks of strong interventions to get rid of the majority of cases. The data show that taking half-measures does not work.

Where is Country x?

This set of countries is certainly not an exhaustive list, but we do highlight the countries which we find to be interesting or important in some way. These lists will be changing over time, and are being updated every few days.

Isn’t much of the confirmed case data inaccurate? Why should I trust this?

While there is some amount of uncertainty in the actual numbers, we argue that those are likely irrelevant to the question of which actions need to be taken. Let’s assume the testing is done in a way in which you only catch 10% of the cases. This would simply scale down the curves by a factor of 10, which would not change the shape of the curves. If there is a sharp increase in the amount of testing vs time, one would expect to see more confirmed cases, even if the actual number of infections is going down. Taking a rolling 7-day average helps reduce the size of the features which show up on timescales of a few days.

Các quốc gia khác nhau có số lượng thử nghiệm khác nhau. Số lượng trường hợp lớn của Aren chỉ là kết quả của một lượng lớn thử nghiệm?

Có hai yếu tố chính ảnh hưởng đến tổng số lượng các trường hợp Covid-19 được xác nhận. Đầu tiên là tổng số nhiễm trùng trong dân số, lần thứ hai là số lượng xét nghiệm được thực hiện. Các khu vực bị nhiễm bệnh cao có thể cho thấy một số lượng nhỏ các trường hợp được xác nhận nếu thử nghiệm của họ là không đủ, đó là lý do tại sao tỷ lệ thử nghiệm dương tính là một yếu tố quan trọng như vậy.

Khóa xuống làm tổn thương nền kinh tế, do đó có thể gây ra nhiều vấn đề. Thất nghiệp, đau khổ tâm lý và tác hại lâu dài cần được xem xét khi quyết định hành động.

Điều này là hoàn toàn đúng. Có nhiều yếu tố chơi ở đây hơn là sức khỏe thể chất của các cá nhân và cộng đồng.

Tuy nhiên, có sự gián đoạn kinh tế kéo dài trong vài tuần là một chiến lược phản ứng được xác thực trong lịch sử cũng lâu đời như lịch sử. Một khóa ngắn, khó khăn giúp tiết kiệm cả nền kinh tế và sức khỏe của dân số. Nếu khóa không hoạt động tốt và các trường hợp mới sẽ không chậm lại, chiến lược sẽ là tăng cường khóa, thay vì nâng nó lên.

Giá mà một quốc gia phải trả cho việc mở lại quá sớm có thể cực kỳ cao. Một lượng lớn tử vong, một hệ thống chăm sóc sức khỏe bị sụp đổ và có nhiều khóa sẽ gây ra một lượng lớn thiệt hại và phải tránh.
