People say you cant criticize the gov in hindsight for a late lockdown.
NEU were one of the first organisations to call for a lockdown, if gov, we were right then, we are right now, this is a reckless charge without proper safety consideration

So after saying they think children are less likely to be infected, ppl refusing to listen to the international studies I've been collecting, oh look I was right. Will the Gov now have to redo the modelling it claims it's done but wont show anyone?

The current plans are reckless and poorly thought out
