🦠 COVID-19:

❌ Open border with Italy
❌ Downplayed the virus
❌ “The NHS is ready”
❌ Herd immunity
❌ No PPE
❌ Ignored Cygnus
❌ Cheltenham
❌ Late lockdown /2
❌ Late masks
❌ Care homes
❌ Scrapped community testing
❌ Double counted tests
❌ Nightingales but no staff
❌ Early unlock
❌ Cummings /3
❌ Test and trace failure
❌ Failed tier systems
❌ £billions on dodgy PPE contracts
❌ £billions on dodgy track and trace consultants
❌ Worst economic hit
❌ Worst healthcare worker death rate in the world
❌ Failed app development /4
❌ University halls
❌ Ignored SAGE in Sept
❌ Listened to sceptics instead
❌ Open borders, again
❌ Herd immunity again?
