Abstract	This chapter, by adopting the institutional perspective, will compare the COVID Monitoring Policies of six different countries and regions, namely, Mainland China, Hong Kong SAR of China, Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and Denmark. Apart from the legitimacy perspective as core underpinning ideas, this chapter will also examine how institutional theory interplays with the government’s policymaking. After reviewing the government policies of these six countries and regions in the early stage of the COVID, three major types of anti-COVID-19 control policies are identified, that is, “Dynamic zero-clearing”, “Living with COVID” and Mitigation policies. The last part of the chapter then discusses on the linkages of choices of a specific policy with the welfare/health ideologies and regime, economic considerations, and the governance of the state as well as citizen participation and engagement.
