While we are on about Victoria (and before anyone starts I think that there are lots of problems that have emerged that show poor planning and project management skills and outdated systems) what is happening in Europe is a salutary reminder
”France will restrict outdoor movement and make working from home mandatory under new lockdown rules, coming into effect at midnight. For every outing, citizens will need to show a government document. People will only be able to leave their own homes for certain essential purposes, as the country tries to put the brakes on a Covid-19 outbreak that the president Emmanuel Macron said risked accelerating out of control.”
”The whole of West Yorkshire will be moving into tier 3 from Monday, Leeds city council leader Judith Blake has told a press conference.The ‘very high’ restrictions mean that people living across West Yorkshire will not be allowed to meet socially with anybody who is not part of their household, or support bubble, indoors.”
Germany has started on tougher lockdown measures. In other words no one has got it right in countries where individual rights, and short term inadequate measures prevail.
the choice seems to be to let it run and give up on healthcare with whatever the consequences of that are or trying to get control with whatever the impact of that is.
