Did North Korea donate to China for the epidemic?

On January 31, the Supreme Leader of North Korea sent a letter to the Supreme Leader of China: "The Party and people of North Korea regard the epidemic in China as their own business, and feel the same pain and test as if they were their own family members and relatives. They are sincerely willing to share and help the brothers and sisters of the Chinese people. " "I extend my cordial greetings to all Chinese party members and medical workers who are fighting on the front line of epidemic prevention and control, and express my sincere condolences to the families who have lost their loved ones in the epidemic." And sent disaster relief funds to China.

What supplies did North Korea donate to Wuhan?

After the outbreak, Wuhan announced a city lockdown immediately, and then various provinces and cities also implemented a level one response and began closed management one after another. North Korea is a socialist country and has a brotherly relationship with China. However, North Korea was the first country to allow Chinese people to enter. Many netizens are dissatisfied with North Korea's actions and believe that North Korea is overreacting. However, it is right for North Korea to ban Chinese people from entering the country in order to protect its people from infection. Besides, North Korea is relatively poor and its medical level is not high. If a large-scale epidemic occurs, the consequences will be disastrous.

There is very little news online about North Korea's donations to Wuhan, but according to reports, North Korea provided assistance to Wuhan on January 31. However, it did not donate medical supplies such as masks, but sent funds. It is not clear how much money.

Why is there no coronavirus in North Korea?

North Korea is a semi-closed country. It does not have very close contacts with other countries and its economy is underdeveloped, so there are few people from outside entering and even fewer people from inside leaving.

There are both advantages and disadvantages to being isolated. The disadvantage is that the reform and opening-up policy cannot be implemented better, the national economy is backward, and people live a tight life. The advantage is reflected in this epidemic prevention and control. Due to the extremely small population movement, the chance of virus transmission is greatly reduced.

North Korea quarantined for one month all personnel who entered the country when the outbreak first began in January. Furthermore, when the outbreak was at its peak in China, North Korea closed its doors to visitors and stopped interacting with any country, completely blocking the virus's transmission routes.
