- North Korea reported a continued surge in "fever" cases today but it is unclear how many of those are COVID-19 infections owing to the nation's limited testing capacity. Kim Jong-un has instructed the military to assist in medicine supplies, but the country lacks resources to mount any significant public health defence against the virus. Seoul said that North Korea has been "unresponsive" to its offers of cooperation on COVID-19 response.
