I don& #39;t know who needs to hear this (politicians), but COVID-19 deaths per country isn& #39;t a competition.

The aim isn& #39;t to have less than someone else, it& #39;s not to be able to say "well X country are doing worse than us", the aim should be to have as few deaths as possible. 1/

Likewise, if you& #39;re boasting about how your nation& #39;s method of treatment/control/track and trace is "world leading", but you& #39;re not actively sharing that protocol with other nations, you& #39;re doing nothing but stroking your own ego. 2/

If someone says to you "We have X deaths, this is awful, we must stop this", why is your response "well if you fiddle the statistics, actually other nations have more" and not "here& #39;s how we& #39;re doing our absolute best to to protect and inform our citizens". It& #39;s deporable. 3/

A pandemic isn& #39;t a time to be crowing over the failings of other nations in order to minimise your own and further your agenda. Surely it& #39;s a time to be coming together to help and support each other?
