With over a hundred confirmed covid cases just 2.5 years into the pandemic, the DPRK is truly one of the worst-equipped nations to respond to a pandemic.
yeah, like, lib ideological reasons for pretending North Korea has warzone-level healthcare aside, surely you'd factor in that it has some of the hardest borders on earth vs Yemen & Somalia effectively having no manned border, right? not a big fan of those silly little lines but in terms of pandemic preparedness it's pretty helpful to control who enters/leaves a country
kek, after the dumpster fire of the last 2 years the only change they made was that they bullshitted the US all the way to the literal top spot, instead of the (already ridiculous) general high ranking
it's all good, let's go to the map

Yeah but the dprk actually put people in mass grave and forced people to go to water slides
I just realized that that map has a green section that's not even used. and that's very funny to me
This Global Health Security Index group needs to get into contact with the CDC, I heard they're very good at making pandemic maps green
China should be green, but the person who made the map has some kind of colorblindness.
How is "prepared" measured, outside of "how :maybe-later-kiddo: feels about the place?"
:us-foreign-policy:
I wonder what it would take for the US to fall all the way from #1 to #2.

Wasn’t the US number one on the one before covid too?
yea you're right, i just checked
unlimited genocide
one of the best maps of all time for sure
