A year into the coronavirus pandemic, and some remote parts of the world remain in some of the strictest lockdowns to curb the spread of the virus, according to the Government Response Stringency Index developed at Oxford University.
The platform contains data for more than 180 countries, and bases its scores on 20 different lockdown indicators, including school closures, social restrictions and travel bans.
The stringency index also takes into account economic support measures by governments, while testing and vaccination policies also play a role. The lower a country’s score, the less strict the measures are.
