Our own complacency (it's just a new flu) was the reason it wasn't stopped far sooner! There was a comedy of errors and keystone cops/border control allowing cruise ships to disembark their entire passenger lists, untested! And spread throughout the entire continent Even as we understood, the entire Italian pandemic was started by a single Asymptomatic Chinese tourist!
And there is an alleged "ethenic cohort" that is willfully practising civil disobedience? And a Jubilant (we as right) right-wing press claiming conspiracy theories etc. And as such as conspiracies, done to harm the economy/the stock market/the indolent privileged rich?
But hey let's be fair! Without question, all of the above is down to Chairman, Danial Andrews? Talk about objectivity!
