2020 was the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, the most
significant global pandemic since the 'Spanish flu' in 1918-1919.
This book provides an analysis of the experience of the COVID-19
pandemic in a range of Commonwealth countries during 2020, covering
public health, political, economic and international aspects. The
Commonwealth, within which about one quarter of the world's
population resides, provides a cross-section of the global
experience of COVID-19. The Commonwealth ranges from highly
populated countries such as India and Nigeria, to small island
states and territories, encompassing also advanced industrialised
countries and developing countries. The grouping also extends into
many different regions of the world: Africa, South and Southeast
Asia, Europe, the Americas and Oceania. In the first year of the
pandemic, vaccines were still under development and national
response strategies chosen by Commonwealth countries were diverse,
spanning eradication, elimination, suppression and mitigation. The
chapters in this book show the ways in which governments from a
selection of Commonwealth countries responded to the multiple
dimensions of the crisis, pointing to the factors that led to
effective or less effective policies. This book originally appeared
as a special issue of The Round Table.
