The U.S. national/federal health policies that have been adapted for the global health issue of COVID-19 include measures such as widespread testing and contact tracing, mandates for wearing masks in public places, and vaccine distribution efforts. These policies have been implemented with the aim of reducing the spread of the virus and protecting public health.
In comparison, the country selected for study, for example, the United Kingdom, has also implemented similar measures, such as widespread testing, contact tracing, and mask mandates. However, the UK has taken a different approach to vaccine distribution, prioritizing those at highest risk such as elderly citizens and healthcare workers, rather than making the vaccine widely available to the general public as is being done in the U.S.
Both countries have faced challenges in implementing these policies, such as vaccine hesitancy and limited supply of personal protective equipment. Overall, both the U.S. and UK have adapted similar policies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, but with some differences in their approach and implementation.
