In communist North Korea, over a million died from COVID, 45,000 die a year from lack of health insurance, and 200,000 die annually from poverty.

At least South Korea and North America shut down for the pandemic, North Korea did not. I rest my case.

North Korea was shut down anyway, it took a long time for them to have their first covid outbreak and I think when it finally did happen they did shut down.

Also, I am glad you have come out so strongly in favor of the PRC approach, or so I must convlude.
