Huh? The US has over 580,000 deaths and the UK has over 125,000 death. How the hell does this classify as "control the disease successfully"? New Zealand in contrast has only 25 deaths.

This guy worships the West and can not think on his own. In America and Britain hundreds were dying daily despite having so many doctors and hospitals, over half a million had died in America so far. In comparison Sri Lanka is doing much better and only now things are going bad because the government failed to cut off completely from India.

Both America and UK had two of the most stupid leaders known to makind and according to you have done well in the fight against covid...... this should be encouraging news for Sri Lankan leaders who literally glow in the dark.

According to our honorable ex minister who is US/UK biased (may be his ancesters originated from there) is saying that Sri Lanka should follow US and UK. Can you believe this? US still has a daily infection of over 40,000 cases . So, you can imagine if these guys were in power what could have been our numbers. Readers please go and check numbers before you blindly believe this guy who is all out to sell the country to US for nothing.

You are no medial expert to give the number of people that needs to be vaccinated. You are repeating the "WHO and leading national health agencies such a NHS in UK figures" which is common knowledge now. I think it is time you withdraw from public life and concentrate on a nice hobby or past time.

US and UK as countries that had not been able to control the disease successfully. Therefore Sri Lanka should take japan and south Korea as role models,"

We controlled it for sometime but now we are not in control. US and UK controlled it through vaccines. They kept all vaccines to themselves first and only now they are slowly giving to other countries. Only Australia, New Zealand have controlled it better. But they too have not received enough vaccines. Surprisingly, China, Vietnam, Thailand, Thaiwan, are having only very few infected people.
