It will soon become "oh, the knowledge advanced that's why we updated it" because willful amnesia is very human. It's true we have some new knowledge, but if you look at the actual evidence folks trying to communicate in Feb/March/April had enormous amount of evidence.

Yes the feet-dragging from WHO, etc is not excusable. I do think that quantitatively we still understand these issues very poorly (e.g., indoors, am I 5x more likely to be infected at 6ft instead of 12ft, or 100x?) which may explain some of the messiness of the paradigm shift.
