Singapore is tiny. It's an area 6 times the size of San Francisco with a border with passport control.

Sure, Singapore is small, but that’s not the main reason they’ve done so well.

Singapore experienced SARS, which also took the lives of doctors and nurses in addition to their patients. That country’s healthcare system has been stress-tested in a way that most haven’t.
