The world's five safest cities post-pandemic<br>Cities across the world have had to rethink security in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic – here are the ones doing it well.<br>othing in modern memory has changed city life quite like Covid has.

In fact, the pandemic is the first of its scale to happen to us as an "urbanised" species. When the Spanish Flu hit in the early 1900s, only 14% of humans lived in cities, but today that figure has risen to 57%, according to estimates by the <a target="_blank" UN" target="_blank">href="https://population.un.org/wup/Archive/Files/studies/United%20Nations%20(1969)%20-%20Growth%20of%20the%20World's%20Urban%20and%20Rural%20Population,%201920-2000.pdf">UN Population Division</a>.<br>As a result, cities have had to become even more vigilant in terms of health protections and overall security to better protect their populations.
