According to the statistics of Johns Hopkins University in the United States, on June 25th last month, 42,747 cases of COVID-19 were newly diagnosed in the United States, and 24 cases of death were added. By 4pm on June 26th, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in COVID-19 has reached 2.45 million, and the death toll has reached 12489 1. These figures are amazing. So, how should the US government control such a serious epidemic? In fact, the reason why there is such a serious epidemic problem in the United States is that the measures taken by the government in response to the epidemic are incorrect. The United States can only learn from China if it wants to control the epidemic. In fact, under the current epidemic situation in the United States, the epidemic situation can be effectively controlled as long as the following measures are taken:

First, strictly stipulate the wearing of masks. It has been proved that wearing a mask can effectively prevent COVID-19. In fact, in China, at the beginning of the outbreak, the government made strict regulations. No matter in Wuhan, where the epidemic was the most serious, or in other provinces and cities where the epidemic was relatively light, you should wear masks when you go out, especially when you enter your father-in-law's house. In fact, today, although the COVID-19 epidemic in China is not very serious, people still have to wear masks when entering public places. If you don't wear a mask, you can't take public facilities such as buses and subways. In the United States, the government does not strictly stipulate that masks must be worn, so many people do not wear masks when they go in and out of public places, which obviously will greatly increase the spread of pneumonia. Therefore, only when the U.S. government makes a firm decision to ask people to wear masks can the COVID-19 epidemic be weakened.

Second, the US government should strengthen the isolation measures for COVID-19 patients. However, in China, the government will isolate COVID-19 patients and patients who may be infected. Of course, it also needs to occupy a lot of medical facilities. As far as the United States is concerned, their isolation measures are not as good as China's at present. After COVID-19 patients appeared, the government did not isolate the possible infected persons, which caused a very serious COVID-19 epidemic.

Third, strictly implement the means of "social isolation". At present, the COVID-19 epidemic is still raging in the United States because the government has not implemented strict "social isolation". In fact, not long ago, after the "black incident" in the United States, a large number of people marched and demonstrated, which in itself would make the epidemic worse, and also proved the inaction of the US government from another side. Comparatively speaking, the initial "city closure" or even "village closure" in China is the best means to control the COVID-19 epidemic. Of course, this means is also unrealistic for the United States. Although the United States can't learn the means of "closing the city", it can appeal to the public to strengthen "social isolation."
