South Korea is probably the place you want to be during this Covid-19 pandemic

Bloomberg’s COVID-19 Resilience Ranking has shown that South Korea is the fifth best place to be during the COVID-19 pandemic.

New Zealand reclaimed the number one spot which it had held for five consecutive months until April 2021. Those in New Zealand have the liberty to lead pre-COVID-19 life, save for international travel.

Singapore and Australia took the third and fourth spots respectively.

A wide range of data is used to generate the COVID-19 Resilience Ranking. The information shows the country which handles the pandemic the most effectively, with the least social and economic disruption- from mortality and testing rates to vaccine access and freedom of movement. Every month, the ranking scores economies of more than $200 billion prior to the pandemic on 10 core metrics.
