So the question is if everything was done right, at the right time, and based on the science how are we heading for the largest per capita death toll?

Based on the current trajectory and our initial spread start then yes. However as with all projections nothing is definite until it's definite. Including deaths outside of hospitals would I fear make numbers even bleaker.

We aren't counting deaths outside of hospitals and we are weeks behind in the life span of the viral spread. My point was for a government to say everything was done perfectly is patently untrue given the death toll being projected. To say otherwise IS misinformation.

No one is saying things have been done perfectly, they followed the science, that is not the same thing WHO declared a high risk on the 28th February, a pandemic on the 11th March The NERVTAG minutes are in the public domain You think they should've locked down at low threat?

I think we should've been better prepared. I think stocks of PPE should have been maintained. I think over the past decade the NHS shouldn't have been hobbled. I think as the situation grew worse our PM shouldn't have been AWOL. I think this is the worse time for government spin.

That's not hindsight. This type of event has been predicted for years. It's been the key risk factor in government plans above terrorism for a decade and more. These were key errors and have certainly cost unnecessary deaths, Your flippance is beyond reprehensible.
