    Crazy that the thing that all the experts warned would probably happen ended up happening

        And so many of these governments seem to be reading from the same 'who could have imagined' script. No shame whatsoever.https://twitter.com/lalytatweets/status/1321469271353024512?s=21 …

        They can’t claim it. They can only continue to lie. "We didn’t know, we didn’t see, we didn’t think, we didn’t expect, we couldn’t imagine", they can say but karma and history will not forgive or forget. Regrets coming up soon. Too little, too late. https://twitter.com/lalytatweets/status/1314477690825605127?s=21 …

        I thought the masks were supposed to prevent a second wave

        But did enough people wear them? No. Did enough people avoided situations where they could get infected? No. For masks to work that way *everybody* has to wear them. If it's done only somewhere by somebody sometimes - it doesn't work, only one bit slower spread.

        Actually a lot of experts expected an effective test track and trace system to be put in place during the first lockdown. A lot of experts warned not to open pubs. A lot of experts wanted NHS labs to do the testing

        Politicians and senior bureaucrats have no interest on listening to real experts' recommendations. Magic and fear are their tools to control. I am really mad, and mostly sad at these events. Thanks for your excellent work.
