For the Danes, the word Samfundssind reminded them to look at corona virus as a joint situation where it was important not to think of their own needs, but to think about themselves as part of a bigger cause. Samfundssind worked because the political leadership introduced it as a new norm, and the society, which trusted them, embraced it voluntarily. It is a model, the rest of the world should seek to replicate, albeit one that's less easily adaptable in nations as politically polarized as India, China, the US or parts of Europe, Africa and South America, where polls show little confidence in leadership's handling of the pandemic.
