It took too long for some people to leave the starter blocks on this matter and some are still there.
The public at large is not well informed and from what I see is not trying to get well informed.
There are so many basic things that we are not doing which is making this much worse than it should have been.
Now we all have to suffer for it.

We have twitter accounts with sizable followings still saying that masks "don't work". A case of binary thinking writ-large. They work in some respects even if not 100%. They work even better when everyone wears them. simple.inductive.proof.
We have people still arguing about whether this thing is "transmissible through the air". Unable to add fact + fact. The CDC are rumored to be planning to change their advice on this.
We have people breaking curfew to hang out.
We have people who think this is the "flu" and will be "over by May".
And then we have all the people who have to suffer or die because of this.
It's has been a monumental failure all around and has shown up "our leaders" for the incompetent chancers that they are.
If the masses had a better grip on the fundamentals maybe they could have forced our leaders' hands. It's almost as if we ("collective") ended up getting the leaders we deserved
.
You wouldn't run a school project as badly as they have done this
.
From one step to the next it has been a disaster
.
Even on here, has there been a collective effort to
get together to pin down the most reliable facts? To save lives? People talking about "running hot water" over items to get rid of viruses. This sort of nonsense costs lives ...
