South Korea
outh Korea introduced what was considered
the largest and best-organised
programme in the world to screen the population
for the virus, isolate any infected
people, and trace and quarantine those
who contacted them.
Screening methods included mandatory
self-reporting of symptoms by new international
arrivals through mobile application
drive-through testing for the virus with the
results available the next day, and increasing
testing capability to allow up to 20,000
people to be tested every day. South
Korea's programme is considered a success
in controlling the outbreak without
quarantining entire cities.
