How is Vietnam have no death due to the Coronavirus Covid-19 scam?

Let just say Vietnam is a communist country, just like China, Russia and a few others. When speaking of communist, they are mostly corrupted, in other word the leaders are not being picked by the people but rather their own party, although sometime they announced voting but we never really know the winning poll because it’s not transparent.

Now putting politic aside, what could be other reason not tied to politic that Vietnam reported no death due to the coronavirus covid19?

Long-Term Growth (LTG)

Long-term growth (LTG) is an investment strategy that aims to increase the value of a portfolio over a multi-year time frame. Although long-term is relative to an investors’ time horizons and individual style, generally long-term growth is meant to create above market returns over a period of ten years or more. Because of the longer time frame, long-term growth portfolios can be more aggressive in holding a larger percentage of stocks versus fixed-income products like bonds. Whereas an intermediate term balanced fund might have 60% stocks to 40%, a long-term growth fund might have 80% stocks and 20% bonds.

Repurchase Agreement (Repo)

A repurchase agreement (repo) is a form of short-term borrowing for dealers in government securities. In the case of a repo, a dealer sells government securities to investors, usually on an overnight basis, and buys them back the following day at a slightly higher price. That small difference in price is the implicit overnight interest rate. Repos are typically used to raise short-term capital. They are also a common tool of central bank open market operations.
