It is clear we are doing a "very good job" with the virus, so no paperwork is needed here.

I don't think anyone said we've done a "very good job." When it's spun as positive, It's described as an "unbelievable job," or "better than any other nation job," etc.

I’m glad to see this is about South Korea. To the north, they just shoot immigrants to avoid infection risk.

Usually, it is first a "very good job", followed by a quick "incredible job", and only then "the best job in the world in controlling the china virus".   I think that together, we have done a great job capturing the essence of this, maybe the best job ever, and we will probably get awards for this.

It helps when the character of the people is such that they put the good of their country and fellow people ahead of their selfish wishes.

We saw that in Baltimore this year when, with memories of the destructive 2015 Freddie Gray riots still fresh in their minds, the protesting citizens decided they weren't going to put up with destructive protests and turned window-breakers, etc. over to the police themselves.

Unfortunately, we don't see that with COVID-19.  Drive through the streets of Baltimore at rush hour and you'll see crowded sidewalks where 90% of the people are not wearing masks or have them slung down around their necks.
