History is full of "we should haves""

In this instance we didn't have to wait for history to be made and written about. The government had had notice and the evidence elsewhere as well as from the UK. Specialists were convening and advising, with certain prime ministers not attending the emergency meetings.

The pandemic testing exercise was undertaken just a couple of years ago, which highlighted our desperate unreadiness, lack of supies including PPE etc. Johnson said last week he'd still not read the report! Imagine at the start of a global epidemic deciding not to order supplies, prepare nor even read the official report of the Cygnus dummy run test that checked if we were ready! You really couldn't make it up!!

It's horrific and postponing things until they have become history kicks the can si far down the road that we miss opportunities to improve things before the next predictable waves of the catastrophe. Winter brings a series of infections each year - this year we have covid-19 joining them.

Accepting how things are is probably the best way to plan how to progress.

No, forsight is a wonderful thing, hindsight is just a lazy excuse for being unprepared.

Germany were doing test and trace in JANUARY. That's why Germany has a low death rate and a low infection rate. We didn't even officially acknowledge the virus until

Febuary, 2 months after even the BBC were reporting it as a potentially deadly pandemic spreading through Hubei Provence in China.

Make all the excuses you want to defend Boris and the Tories but the truth is simple. They didn't care because it was a distraction from what they were really doing - internal fighting about a no deal brexit. 60k more Brits died than Germany JUST to prove a political point. That's not hindsight, its murder.

Politicians are inherantly good at rhetoric, but they wouldn't pass muster in the real world.

"

"Murder is the unlawful killing of another human without justification or valid excuse, especially the unlawful killing of another human with malice aforethought. This state of mind may, depending upon the jurisdiction, distinguish murder from other forms of unlawful homicide, such as manslaughter."

At best, state sanctioned manslaughter, at worst 'killing of another human with malice aforethought'.

Easy to judge what someone else is doing. Also easy to compare to a country which manufactures the tests therefore had the ability and priority to test and trace before anyone else. Also good to do the blame game when this is far from over. Let's see what happens in the second wave.

And Germany has a decentralised healthcare system with a mix of public/private health insurance (multi-payer system rather than single-payer here in the UK (paid for out of general taxation)) and has a mix of public, private non-profit and private for-profit hospitals.

Different healthcare systems will produce different outcomes. People in UK are not happy with mix of public/private healthcare.

They seem to want to keep a monolithic unwieldy structure so we have a mish mash system which is unfit for purpose. Complete NHS reform is needed not bits and pieces here and there.

Yes without being overwhelmed.

But people are comparing Germany with UK when it comes to prevention.

Germany has a different health service which allowed them to ramp up testing very quickly.

UK doesn't have a health service which allows it to be as flexible.

They were,unsurprisingly,much better prepared than us.They have handled it much more efficiently,their death rate is lower,their economy is stronger and they don't have a lying bumbling bafoon making jokes when asked people dying.

No. They have a better more flexible healthcare system with a good mix of private/public - like most European nations. NHS is hamstrung by public opinion and treated like a sacred cow. Complete reform is needed.

Comparing the uk health system to the German health care system is totally wrong they are entirely different same as using the reported figures. Reported UK covid deaths are for people who have tested positive at any time during this pandemic they may of recovered from covid and later died in a car accident. Most of the world in order too look good have posted covid deaths as those testing positive at the time of death.

Germany has a large pharmaceutical research industry that quickly responded to provide the testing facilities. The UK is also a much larger transit hub for international travelers than Germany so was a lot higher risk from infected people arriving. No countries data can be compared to anothers unless they are all reporting on a set standard of facts..

Blundering baffoon Johnson's governments handling has been nothing short of abominable. From shaking hands with coronaviris patients, to congratulating himself on his success back when there were 20,000 test, his open schools, close schools fiasco, Dominic Cummings fiasco,failure to put cabinet ministers on GMTV,putting up unknowns to lead the updatesetc etc . Great leaders dont hide I fridges, they lead from the front. While the 3 devolved governments seem to have got the virus under control as best they can the death rate in England is still a big worry.

Do you really think that the rural areas in England have had it any worse than rural areas in Wales or Scotland, your population is centered around the large cities in England so they would have had it worse.

I can't comment on Sturgeon as I don't know the facts but Mark Drakeford's in Wales has just sat on the fence and waited to see what happens in England for 3 weeks at a time is that leadership!

"Could of, should of ,would of.

Try 'have'

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

And a very useful excuse.

Excuse for what your friend Boris has only been in the job for around 9 months, did Teresa may and David Cameron have stocks of PPE at the ready, no and why should they. It's all very well pointing the blame but every country has made mistakes because we are in unknown territory, it's okay to have so called experts give advice but it has to be practical.

Why should They be prepared to a pandemic?

Its called foresight."

The threat of a world pandemic has been well documented for years now and most countries were not prepared. Boris and his motley crew never took any notice of what was happening in Italy which was a few weeks in front of us pandemic wise. He was not able to learn lessons from this and as such plunged Britain into the worst record for deaths in the world. Boris and his crew are a pruvelidged bunch of inept people who would not survive in the real world if not for their silver spooned legup in life that most of them don't deserve
