If you think the Pacific islands have been insulated from COVID-19, you are wrong. Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Guam and French Polynesia have all reported positive cases.
Guam is the worst-hit with 50 confirmed cases.
Palau and Solomon Islands are few islands in the Pacific that are still free from the coronavirus spectre.
North Korea also has reported zero cases of coronavirus. However, the authoritative regime is known for hiding facts.
Taiwan (322), Hong Kong (715), Singapore (926), Japan (2269) are places with lowest cases of COVID-19 due to early measures such as rapid testing and isolation protocols. Apart from China, South Korea, where positive cases spiked to 9,887 positive after mid-February, has controlled the infection from spreading further.
