North Korea hasn’t reported any COVID-19 cases

One of the world’s poorest countries has, according to its public statements, managed to avoid the virus


Pyongyang has either been very lucky, isn’t saying something or is
reaping one of the few benefits of being a so-called “hermit nation.”


North Korea has closed its borders to all foreign tourists, most of
whom are Chinese, as a precautionary measure, according to one travel
agency that runs tours inside the country. Pyongyang did the same during
the Ebola outbreak of 2014.

There are still a few remote corners where the virus has not infected any person.

One such place is the Palau island, nestled in the northern Pacific. It
has a population of 18,000, but has still not reported a single
Covid-19 positive case

A dot in
the ocean hundreds of kilometres from its nearest neighbours, Palau is
surrounded by the vast Pacific, which has acted as a buffer against the
virus.

The strict travel restrictions have also helped in keeping
infections at bay for a number of nations in the region including
Tonga, the Solomon Islands, the Marshall Islands and Micronesia.



The residents of these remote places are, however, preparing themselves in the wake of the global outbreak of coronavirus.

The Last Places on Earth without COVID-19
Most of the places that have not reported a case are small and
hard-to-reach island nations in the Pacific Ocean. They have names like
Nauru, Tuvalu, Pitcairn, Tokelau and Niue. They are also some of the
least-populated places in the world.

American Samoa, Vanuatu,
Micronesia, and Solomon Islands also count themselves among the
coronavirus-free places in the Pacific.

Hard-to-reach islands in the South Atlantic with no reported virus cases include South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.

The virus started to reach Africa but appeared to spare the islands of Comoros and Saint Helena.

Living ALONE on Yemen’s Remote Socotra Island

Socotra is hands-down one of the most epic places I’ve been to. On my
recent trip to this Yemeni island with Welcome to Socotra, I spent an
unforgettable 2 weeks camping, hiking, swimming and exploring.


In Socotra, on a remote beach, I met a modern-day Robinson Crusoe. This
man lives alone, isolated from the rest of the world, and I want to
tell you about his life.

Check my Instagram for daily updates on my adventures to not-so-popular tourist destinations:

islands split between four states, dispersed over more than
2,600,000-square kilometers (1,000,000 square miles) of the Pacific
Ocean. With that extraordinary distance, comes significant logistical
challenges. A World Bank project, in partnership with the Government of

Kiribati: a drowning paradise in the South Pacific | DW Documentary

DW Documentary

Climate change and rising sea levels mean the island nation of Kiribati
in the South Pacific is at risk of disappearing into the sea.


But the island’s inhabitants aren’t giving up. They are doing what they
can to save their island from inundation. Can COP23 help make a
difference?

UN estimates indicate that Kiribati could disappear
in just 30 or 40 years. That’s because the average elevation is less
than two meters above sea level. And some of the knock-on effects of
climate change have made the situation more difficult. Kiribati can
hardly be surpassed in terms of charm and natural beauty. There are 33
atolls and one reef island – spread out over an area of 3.5 million
square kilometers. All have white, sandy beaches and blue lagoons.
Kiribati is the world’s largest state that consists exclusively of
atolls. A local resident named Kaboua points to the empty, barren land
around him and says, “There used to be a large village here with 70
families.” But these days, this land is only accessible at low tide. At
high tide, it’s all under water. Kaboua says that sea levels are rising
all the time, and swallowing up the land. That’s why many people here
build walls made of stone and driftwood, or sand or rubbish. But these
barriers won’t stand up to the increasing number of storm surges. Others
are trying to protect against coastal erosion by planting mangrove
shrubs or small trees. But another local resident, Vasiti Tebamare,
remains optimistic. She works for KiriCAN, an environmental
organization. Vasiti says: “The industrialized countries — the United
States, China, and Europe — use fossil fuels for their own ends. But
what about us?” Kiribati’s government has even bought land on an island
in Fiji, so it can evacuate its people in an emergency. But Vasiti and
most of the other residents don’t want to leave.
