The list used to be longer a few months ago, but the situation has now changed. Tonga and Cook Islands are not part of it anymore.
The world has been dealing with the coronavirus pandemic for more than two years. During this time, many countries saw daily tally breaking new records and thousands succumbing to the infection. The situation was particularly bad in the United States and Europe, as identified by the World Health Organization (WHO).
But there are still some countries which have remained untouched by the pandemic. The WHO has a list, which shows the spread of the infection in various countries. Scrolling down, the list shows at least 10 countries which have reported zero Covid-19 cases.
Most of these countries and territories are islands in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, and are likely to be experiencing the benefit of bordering only the sea.
The list used to be longer a few months ago, but the situation has now changed. In Tonga, where a volcano erupted recently, Covid-19 outbreak began after ships brought aid to the island nation. Similarly, Cook Islands also reported its first case last week.
