UK Covid-19 death figures

[insider]

Wales could have, should have, made their own decisions on lockdown. Small European countries went ahead. It doesn't sit easy but we have our own Public Health system, our own Medical officers and Scientific advisors, and our own parliament. if overall they decided to wait for England to declare lockdown or go with a UK position before acting then that's the Senedd's decision and their responsibility.
Nothing at all to do with England, Scotland or Northern Ireland

Wales couldn't do anything on there own until the covid act was passed through Parliament.
Which was delayed because Johnson had his thumb stuck up his arse for ages.

The act covered lots of day to day things, like retired doctors re-registering etc, but the Senedd was free to do whatever in strategic healthcare issues, including its own lockdown. Whether it would have been practical, I don’t know. Buts let’s stop blaming Westminster for the Senedd decisions, or lack of.

The Public Health Act 1984

it would seem that a lockdown was maybe!!!! not required but common sense wasn't being applied in the early stages.
