Explanation:
*measures:*
Some of the significant measures taken by the countries, which have more confirmed cases compared to the others, are as follows:
(1) Restrictions on travel, transportation
One of the very first measures taken by the international community was to close borders and suspend international flights, which were followed by restrictions on domestic mobility.
Turkey, for its part, shut down border gates and halted international flights whereas traveling within the country is now possible only if people have the permission of the provincial governor's offices. Traveling to or from 31 provinces has been suspended.
The other countries shutting down borders and adopting domestic measures were China, Iran, Italy, Spain, France, Belgium, and Portugal. The U.S., Canada, Brazil, Russia, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland and Israel closed their borders to international flights, but they did not impose strict measures on domestic travel.
(2) Measures to reduce mass mobility
In response to the spread of the virus, Turkey imposed restrictions on those over 65 years old or below 20, and they are not allowed to leave home. Countries most affected by the virus have so far adopted different policies on curfews. Italy, Spain, Russia, and India announced curfew, while the U.K., Ireland, and China preferred lighter restrictions. The U.S., Canada, Iran, France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Portugal, Brazil, Austria, and Israel did not impose a curfew, but they called on citizens to stay at home.
(3) Measures for work life
Turkey, to protect employees, banned companies from terminating employment or service contract for three months. "Short work allowance" was provided to companies that were forced to halt business due to the outbreak. Those workers whose contracts were terminated ahead of these policies -- before March 15 -- were provided with 1,177 Turkish liras (roughly $170), monthly during their unpaid leave or unemployment period. Employees benefiting from cash compensation were also included in the General Healthcare Insurance. As for the retired seniors, their Bayram (festival) allowance was paid a month earlier.
(4) Measures at health institutions, healthcare system
Turkey has never had any difficulty in meeting the demands for masks as private and public institutions began to produce and distribute those to citizens free of charge. The healthcare organizations were provided with 3.6 million N95 type medical masks.
While treatment for COVID-19 is provided free of charge in Turkey, 1 million rapid testing kits were also distributed nationwide. The entire healthcare system was mobilized to battle the virus, and all private hospitals were turned into pandemic hospitals. Notably, the authorities started to build two new hospitals in Istanbul.
The performance-based payments to the health personnel were provided at the ceiling level for three months.
Countries with the most confirmed cases offer COVID-19 tests free of charge, with the exceptions of Brazil and the Netherlands. The treatment for the disease is offered free in all countries apart from the Netherlands.
The U.S. partly covers the treatment expenditure, whereas Iran charges people with 10% of the total.
As for the medical equipment need, countries such as Turkey, Germany, China, Russia, Canada, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Portugal are on the safe page compared to the others on the list.
Turkey, the U.S., Germany, China, Russia, Brazil, Switzerland, and Austria do not have trouble in accessing diagnosis kits,
Answer:
A whole-of-society approach to pandemic influenza preparedness emphasizes the significant roles played not only by the health sector, but also by all other sectors, individuals, families, and communities, in mitigating the effects of a pandemic.
