Vietnam, China,Taiwan had positive GDP growth in 2020 and as far as i know the only countries with positive GDP. Your article is from September. Q4 data is now out so you can get the full 2020.

Countries that failed to contain the virus like Europe and the US had negative GDP growth and racked up large amounts of debt.

You're certainly welcome to do the work to prove the (extraordinary) claim that you're making.

As I said, even if you can find a few examples of growth amidst the broader disaster, most are nowhere near what they would have been.

The Chinese growth rate was in the CNBC article. So basically, you're saying that Taiwan grew.

I'll give you Taiwan. Now tell me about the rest of Asia.
