| SvennoJ said: Regional lock downs aren't that effective since they are usually imposed too late and essential travel still has to keep going in and out of the area. It will work in the area but the seeds still spread to create the next regional lock down and so forth, keeping the fire burning perpetually. |
This is a problem related with (the lack of) strong position of governments. South Korea, New Zealand and Australia were fast answering the virus and flattened the curve pretty fast. Australia is doing it again as their current wave is focused mostly on Melbourne
If Brazil had closed 5 to 7 states in early April the virus wouldn't be as spread as now. The are at least half dozen states that only now are having a truly infection wave. I'm praying for my state to close our borders because pandemic here is finally progressing to a control point in maybe one more month
