An exploration of the political, social, economic and cultural factors affecting how different global regions initially reacted to the COVID-19 pandemic

Julian W. Tang et al.

Summary: Responses to the early COVID-19 pandemic varied globally, with Asian populations being more collectivist and self-sacrificing, quickly responding to the pandemic and complying with restrictions. Other regions also imposed restrictions promptly due to concerns for their society and healthcare systems. Western European and North American countries initially reacted more slowly, aiming to protect their economies and delay restrictions on personal freedoms.

Responding to the COVID-19 second wave in Thailand by diversifying and adapting lessons from the first wave

Nattadhanai Rajatanavin et al.

Summary: Thailand swiftly responded to the first wave of COVID-19 with strong public health and social measures, including contact tracing, isolation, and regional lockdowns. The second wave, carried by undocumented migrants, was contained through targeted strategies and active case finding. Lessons learned from the first wave informed the response to the second wave, leading to successful containment with lower case fatality rate.

Impact of Public Health and Social Measures on the COVID-19 Pandemic in the United States and Other Countries: Descriptive Analysis

Sophia Alison Zweig et al.

Summary: The study suggests that early, consistent, prolonged, and high adherence to public health and social measures are key factors in reducing COVID-19 transmission. National income positively correlates with cumulative COVID-19 incidence, indicating that wealth plays a less important role in controlling the pandemic compared to rapid, centralized, and consistent public health action.

Causal impact of masks, policies, behavior on early covid-19 pandemic in the US

Victor Chernozhukov et al.

Summary: The study suggests that policies and information on transmission risks significantly impact the growth rates of Covid-19 cases and deaths. Nationally mandating face masks for employees early in the pandemic could have reduced cases and deaths, while the effects of school closures remain uncertain. The research emphasizes the importance of considering both policies and individual behavioral responses in combating the pandemic.

Dismantling myths on the airborne transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2)

J. W. Tang et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant disruption globally, highlighting the importance of understanding the transmission mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2. Confusion over the meaning of 'airborne' in discussions of transmission stems from past evidence and mythological beliefs, but there is evidence indicating that SARS-CoV-2 can be transmitted through various sizes of airborne particles.

COVID-19 Response in Thailand and Its Implications on Future Preparedness

Wijitbusaba Marome et al.

Summary: Thailand reported its first COVID-19 case as early as mid-January 2020 and has responded to the pandemic guided by the Integrated Plan for Multilateral Cooperation. While effective in limiting the spread of the disease, Thailand's response falls short at addressing the economic and social impacts of the crisis. The sociopolitical system plays a crucial role in governance and decision-making for pandemic responses, and enhancing multilevel governance and engaging with stakeholders may increase resilience in Thailand.

Variation in SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks across sub-Saharan Africa

Benjamin L. Rice et al.

Summary: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has shown low burdens in sub-Saharan Africa compared to other regions, potentially influenced by factors such as climate and population demographics. Caution is needed when interpreting analyses that aggregate data from low- and middle-income settings. Heterogeneity in connectivity across sub-Saharan Africa may contribute to variance in the pace of viral spread.

Lloyd B. Mulenga et al.

Summary: The study revealed a significantly higher estimated number of SARS-CoV-2 infections compared to reported cases in six districts in Zambia. The high rtPCR-positive prevalence indicated community transmission, while the low ELISA-positive prevalence was likely influenced by early mitigation measures. It is important for Zambia to monitor the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 and implement measures to reduce transmission.

Binod Rayamajhee et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted Nepal, with the government's initial response being insufficient. Research shows that respiratory illnesses, diabetes, and chronic kidney diseases are the most common comorbid conditions associated with COVID-19 deaths in Nepal. To effectively manage the pandemic, Nepal needs to enhance testing, tracing, and isolation capacity, establish high-quality isolation centers, and implement a comprehensive health literacy campaign.

However, the relevance of these findings to COVID-19 is uncertain and further investigation is needed.

The Philippines' COVID-19 Response: Securitising the Pandemic and Disciplining the Pasaway

Karl Hapal

Summary: This article examines the reasons behind the Philippine government's heavy reliance on draconian measures in response to COVID-19, attributing it to the securitisation of the virus and the framing of the situation as a war against an unseen enemy. This war-like narrative led to the targeting of a perceived troublemaker, the pasaway, guided by deep-seated class prejudices and President Duterte's authoritarian tendencies.

Two routes to precarious success: Australia, New Zealand, COVID-19 and the politics of crisis governance

Nicholas Bromfield et al.

Summary: Australia and New Zealand, as modernizing Antipodean settler societies, have had relative early success in crisis governance during the COVID-19 challenges, although their governance routes - federal multi-level systems and unitary systems respectively - differ significantly. Both federal and unitary systems can contribute to successful crisis governance, with inclusive crisis discussions being essential for consistent responses within the respective normative systems. Success may be fragile, and inclusive discussions can help safeguard against complacency in responding to cascading crisis developments.

Summary: The study found that Central and Eastern European countries had similar social policy responses to the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of protecting jobs and enterprises, but varied significantly in caring for the most vulnerable population. These social policy responses largely depended on previous social policy trajectories and the political situation of the country during the pandemic.
