A combination of slightly optimistic massaging of the figures, possibly? But the main thing is that they had a very rigorous control-based approach. Everyone was literally confined to their homes, there was very comprehensive testing, and anyone with even slight symptoms was removed from their family and taken to a separate quarantine facility for treatment.

Same with South Korea, they got on top of it very quickly.



You forgot to mention Taiwan, Japan and Singapore, they all got on top it very quickly.

Plus no doubt it was partly helped by everyone was wearing a facemask as well, a lesson they learn back in the SARS days.
