No one is going to be happy with how this has been handled unless there are no deaths and no economic repercussions. Too late for that.
I doubt any country has got it perfectly right and even the WHO wasn’t reporting it adequately to start with.
Each country has to decide how best to deal with it and the same model won’t fit all.
A lot of the predictions were worst case scenarios and that scared the bejesus out of the powers that be, media and the general public.
I think one way of getting people to do the right thing (stay in, stay 2mtrs etc) is to give information on the dead. I’m not saying name, address and shoe size but age, what their lifestyle was, did they get it from the park bench or someone they don’t know. From the local shop, Drs or what.
It’s all very well saying 90yr old dies or 23yr old dies but under what circumstances did they get it. I can’t think a 90 yr old would be out raving with the kids so how?
Of course knowing how and where they got it could be positive and negative. But simply saying someone died doesn’t really amount to much.
