Answers
Israel has become the first country in the world to declare itself COVID free. The government has also removed the mandatory face mask rule there, so now people are back to their normal lives. Nearly 70 percent of the population there is vaccinated and mask-free.
Bhutan won the battle against COVID by its vaccination drive and vaccinated more than 90 percent of its adult population in just two weeks! Since the beginning of the pandemic, the country has reported just one death. Though Bhutan shares its border with India and China, the country was never actually hit by the pandemic because of its timely action. Also, Bhutan controlled the pandemic situation without even going into lockdown ever!
The USA has dropped its face-covering requirement for fully vaccinated people at some places. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) here made a major announcement and released a carefully written mask guidance, "Americans who are fully vaccinated against the coronavirus no longer need to wear a mask outdoors while walking, running, hiking or biking alone, or when in small gatherings. Masks are still necessary in crowded outdoor venues like sports stadiums".
New Zealand deserves all the praises for handling the pandemic situation so well. Since the start of the pandemic, the nation has just reported 26 deaths, thanks to its Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. It’s because of the government's quick actions and decisions, New Zealand today is mask-free. In fact, just a few days ago, a concert was organised in Auckland, which was attended by nearly 50000 people without social distancing and mask requirements!
The country from where COVID-19 began is nearly mask-free with almost everyone vaccinated. China was one of the more severely affected countries in the world with the Coronavirus initially; at present, China has opened its tourism. The theme parks, restaurants and hotels are now completely open in China.
