You’re not to shabby yourself

There is a need to examine the mess that was the response to the covid pandemic. I’m not suggesting many other countries reacted better, but there are so many issues and huge costs (in money and in lives) that need to be reviewed. And not by the current government.
I’ve no worries about the vaccine. The technology was 20 years old by the time the covid vaccines were produced and millions was given to the pharma companies to accelerate the testing. I think the vaccines were a success story everywhere.
But the whole PPE debacles was outrageously badly handled.
The decisions to dump patients from hospitals to care homes was disgusting.
The squandering of money on nightingale hospitals when it must have been obvious that there would not be enough staff to man them.
The ignoring of the pandemic emergency walk through that had been held just a few years before.
There is so much to unpick and get better prepared for - because this was not the last pandemic.
It might be the last one in our lifetime.
