South Korea is the model. They've had a robust testing-and-tracing program in place from day 1. It has worked very, very well. They've seen an uptick recently, even so the US infection rate is currently 54x worse than in South Korea. Many EU countries also have radically worse numbers than South Korea. The US per capita cumulative death rate is almost 80x worse than in South Korea.
It's possible (likely?) that Asian cultures are just more compliant in following Covid-prevention protocols, but South Korea still shows what success looks like.
