The pandemic is still raging. The necessary measures are not in place. The government is easing the lockdown to create an impression of progress, but this progress has not been achieved.

Large numbers of people will die as a result.

Don't take my word for it. Listen to what the experts are saying.
People are being sacrificed so that the government can make itself look good. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/may/31/health-officials-make-last-minute-plea-to-stop-lockdown-easing-happy-monday

I'm seeing
a frightening lack of empathy in some responses to the easing: "old people will die anyway"
an individuation of blame for government failure: "it's covidiots behaving irresponsibly"
an individuation of responsibility for solving it.
These are the diseases of our age.

The UK's pandemic is a systemic problem, arising from some massive systemic failures, that, with others, I've been documenting over the past weeks. It can't be stopped simply by people behaving better (though this does help). It can be stopped only by decisive government action.

So let's stop beating each other up over the government's astonishing and culpable failures. Let's focus blame where it belongs - on the homicidal negligence of Johnson's administration - and work out what we're going to do about it.
