Don't believe the sensationalists. The UK population density is:

9 x higher than USA
3 x higher than Spain
2.5 x higher than Italy
2.2 x higher than France

Yet all of these countries, although with people much less densely packed than us, have much higher death rates.
We in the UK literally can't get away from people! ha! So don't let yourselves be fooled by sensationalists who say that we are doing badly with #Covid19 - they are undermining the national effort, which is an effort by all parts of society, including you.
Relatively speaking, we are doing fucking great and that is a fact. Lets just keep doing what we're told and things will be fine.
For those using the opportunity poke holes in government response and take to social media with it - if you are looking for a perfect government, unfortunately you will never find one, not with any party so you need to snap back into reality.
No organisation is perfect and you are not helping the situation. Try taking stock of how well the UK is doing instead of the opposite.
After this is over, that will be the time for analysis of decision making but right now, you are not helping - take your virtue signalling somewhere else.
Yes NHS funding may have been an issue, yes more preparation could potentially have been made for a pandemic....but like USA, Germany, Spain, France, China, Canade etc., these preparations were not done. Why? Because preparation like that takes a significant investment of money…
…into something it is very difficult to measure what the benefit will be, until it happens, plus...it takes many years to put pandemic preparations in place...unfortunately, politics dictates that politicians rarely look beyond 5yrs.
We are all in it together - if you can't cope with the idea of unity, then I don't understand how you get through life without being miserable.
If you desperately need the blame game in your life 24/7 then try and lighten up and blame Carol fuckin Baskin, or better still, don't be in the blame / moan / whinge / everything is shit game. You'll be a lot happier for it.
