North Korea has added18,000 cases of fever, with a total of more than 350,000 cases. Why is the local epidemic so serious?

The most fundamental reason why the epidemic is serious is that there is no experience in preventing and controlling the COVID-19 epidemic in North Korea. Therefore, when the COVID-19 epidemic broke out in China, we could find that it was not only faster, but also had a wider impact. So far, cases of COVID-19 fever have been found in many places in North Korea. As the saying goes, success is Xiao He and failure is me. North Korea did not suffer from the COVID-19 epidemic in the first three years, after all, they closed their doors to the outside world.

But it is precisely because of this situation that they have no strength to fight back against the epidemic. After all, the spread speed and route of COVID-19 epidemic have been greatly improved than before. However, their prevention of COVID-19 or other infectious diseases has not improved, which led to more than 350,000 cases of fever in a short time. At present, according to the data released by the North Korean media, the number of new fever cases on that day has reached 1.8 million. Although they haven't directly announced that all these cases are caused by the COVID-19 epidemic.

But it has been diagnosed, and there is indeed a patient who belongs to COVID-19. Of course, it cannot be said that North Korea has not paid enough attention to this epidemic. The most fundamental point is that the incident happened suddenly. You know, for a long time in the past, North Korea didn't have any signs.

It was at the end of last month that some inexplicable fever cases suddenly appeared in North Korea, and then these patients were treated intensively. However, during the treatment, some people were infected, and some people did not pay attention to fever at first, so they were still active outside. Up to now, in order to better control the epidemic, North Korea requires the whole country to implement closed management to minimize the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic.
