Just curious as to how the world's most secretive nation is coping with the Pandemic. Despite their philosophy of 'nobody in, nobody out', it must have spread across their somehow. Or has it?

Don't know. It's probably pretty far down the list of health problems for North Korea. Malnutrition is a major one. Their closed society may provide some quaranteening effects too.

People are crossing the Chinese boarder despite attempts at vigorous prevention. With people go germs. These people are taking food from China including eggs. Who's to say that contaminated food isn't making it over the boarder?

I saw a YouTube video a long time ago about people smuggling food, cell phones, DVD's, and video tapes into N Korea.
