26 places with no cases of COVID-19

Governments around the world are battling to respond to the crippling effects of the coronavirus pandemic.

But there are some countries that remain entirely untouched by COVID-19 and have yet to report a single case.

Countries with no reported cases of coronavirus: Comoros, Kiribati, Lesotho, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Nauru. Palau, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tajikistan, Tonga, Turkmenistan, Tuvalu, Vanuatu and North Korea.

Permanently inhabited territories with no confirmed cases: Pitcairn Islands (UK),
Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha (UK), American Samoa, US Wallis and Futuna, (France), Svalbard (Norway), Christmas Island (Australia), Norfolk Island, (Australia), Cocos (Keeling) Islands (Australia), Niue (New Zealand), Tokelau (New Zealand) and Cook Islands (New Zealand).

A remote location helps to account for the lack of cases for some, including Comoros, the island nation off the east coast of Africa, and Tuvalu, in the Pacific.

Others took swift and drastic measures to stop any potential spread of the virus.
