@soonleenz@wandering.shop Meanwhile, we in NL had a ludicrous anti-scientific right wing government which firat said it couldn't spread from China, then seemed surprised that it spread from Italy, which insisted that huge carnival crowds wouldn't be a problem because people met in small groups, which implemented an "intelligent" lockdown which wasn't really a lockdown, refused to take airborne transmission seriously, said that children couldn't spread covid, and spoke far too much about gaining immunity by getting ill. Lots of people died, and no-one seems to care.
