According to the World Health Organization, Palau has not reported even a single case of CoronaVirus.

This is also because when the Virus was spreading in huge masses across Asia and The Pacific, Palau was one of the first countries to implement strict border controls.

With the borders locked down totally by march, Palau began testing citizens for the virus by April. These measures were key to keeping Covid-19 out, Palau’s ambassador to the UN said in May. It also gets bonus points for being located in a far-away region of the world.

Operation Warp Speed

An independent nation in free association with Washington, Palau has access to the United States’ mass Covid-19 vaccination program. This program is known as Operation Warp Speed (OWS).

“We are lucky to be in a position where we have access to vaccines through OWS, Our small size makes it easier for us to roll out the program,” Udui said.

“It’s not compulsory to receive the vaccine, so our goal is to vaccinate about 80% of the population. We hope to achieve herd immunity (through the vaccination program).”
