Coronavirus update - NO MORE RESTRICTIONS

[Dorcus]

USA has just recently reached the tragic milestone of 200,000 Covid deaths. This in a country where the loony previous administration's mismanagement of the crisis has rightly attracted global distain. One wonders how many more would have succumbed had they taken the former President's advice and ingested disinfectant.

The USA has a population 5 times greater than the UK so in broad terms even if we had only suffered 40,000 deaths our Government should have been ashamed of their failure. Just what perspective does that put on losing 100k people? "Eat out to help out", "Get back to work if you're able", "Have yourselves a merry little Christmas'..... criminal?

We have an ageing population with more obesity that most Countries. We also have one of the highest population densities in Europe. Three major factors

I am afraid the US death toll is over double that above 400k

I take your point but the Covid19 deaths in the USA is 425k as of today, not 200k. Its still not as bad as the UKs rate but its pretty grim.

"Dine out, help out" was a policy that was lauded at time, and helped a lot of business. Hindsight is wonderful isn't it
