Nor do I have to, since it's not relevant to anything.
The Europeans enforced social distancing early, the isolated this quickly, which is why they aren't suffering the effects we have. Pretty much everything Trump did wrong, they did right... which is why they are at 7% unemployment while we are at 12%.
Also, I'm terribly sorry I hurt your feelings because the Mods Spanked you. Oh, wait, I'm totally not.
The country with the greatest success story was South Korea. In a nutshell, they took action immediately in early January before the virus arrived in the country. The seriousness of virus was never downplayed plus they had a plan to deal with it, including emergency supplies and equipment.
The South Korean president, Moon Jae-in recognizing the threat the virus posed to his country and knowing immediate action was needed to stop this airborne virus, he met with the top pharmaceutical company in South Korea capable of producing test kits in volume only a few days after China release the genome for the virus in early January. He ordered 3 million test kits deliverable in 30 days with a follow up order for tens of millions of kits. This was before the first cases were discovered in South Korea. For prompt delivery, he offered a million dollar bonus. The test kits were delivered in mid February. In the first week of March, South Korea put healthcare workers and the military on the street of Seoul and other cities in South Korea administering tests and quarantining those that were positive. By the end of March, South Korea had
reduced the number of new cases by 90%. They continued their testing and quarantining program. As of today, South Korea with a population of 18% of the US have only 2% of the deaths. They have closed 300 schools vs 124,000 in the US. They have closed businesses based on occurrence of the virus but only a small fraction of US closures. The unemployment rate as of June is 4.3%. In the US it's 11.3%. The US could have duplicated South Korea's success if they had a plan to deal with a nationwide epidemic, a president willing to tackle the job, and the willingness to act immediately. The US had none of the above and now we see the results.
