This is not true for a country like Germany, you would have to hard lockdown for some time and close all borders, and then verify any person who cross the border, and free move in Europe won't make that possible unless all EU countries do it. If you are an island things gets easier in that matter.
The ONLY country which were able to go to zero after a big outbreak is China
- _ph_ 6y agoYes, after a big outbreak. I was talking about the time, when there were a few single cases. In Munich, this worked once, in Heinsberg, it mostly worked, but there the spread was larger due to the infected attending an event. And a lot of cases in Germany were caused by one person in Ischgl which acted completely foolish.
