The media have been all over the government with ridiculous "gotcha" interviews,they have been a disgrace.The UK seems to have have had a disproportionately bad time with this virus which is probably multifactoral.small crowded island with high density housing ,public transport(eg tube),an international airport hub,many hundreds of thousands of UK citizens returning home from overseas and likely very high levels of Vitamin d deficiency at the end of winter(an integral part of the innate immune system which in kids is very strong) in a high latitude country,equivalent to Newfoundland. However the different methodologies in reporting from different countries make like for like comparisons fraught with difficulty and very likely inaccurate at this stage Yes the Government have made some mistakes but there is an international shortage of PPE and testing kits still.The NHS has been slow and cumbersome rather than agile in developing rapid innovations(particularly options from local suppliers and mandatory rapid retooling of industry to supply PPE and test kits) to circumvent there problems and the flirting with the herd immunity idea albeit briefly was also mistake .The biggest mistake is keeping the UK borders open rather than shutting them down and putting anyone arriving into mandatory,policed 2 weeks quarantine into unused hotels However on the whole they have done pretty well from a standing start eg Nightingales,Extreme lockdown .rules and huge financial stimulus The WHO and China have been the biggest villans in this story with their mimisation of the risk ,which when it became apparent caught most countries with their pants down and unprepared Edited May 9, 2020 by Ivan the terrible 1 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWA Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 14 hours ago, Ivan the terrible said: OPen access with no border controls a bigger problem imo...what were they thinking not closing the borders and putting any arrivals into a mandatory 2 week quarantine..ENFORCED .. in a location outside their home...and policed The UK Government argument against quarantine is that while the disease is out of control within our borders, letting folks in with it will have minimal incremental effect. Better to get it under control and have the quarantine facilities and resources available for when they can be beneficial. It sounds like the UK is nearly at that point now. It does sound quite logical, although I have no idea if it's correct or not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
