I don’t think the ‘island’ part is the important bit, but the ‘small’ might be. Hawaii and the the UK are examples of islands that haven’t done that well.

See my other comment. Neither have Andorra, Armenia, or Vatican City.

I think from what we've seen, you need to be a small island nation AND have a strong policy response to have a chance at averting this crisis.
