'1. Your country is incapable of doing what has to be done. In which case it is a failed state, by definition — it is failing at its most basic duty of protecting the life and wellbeing of its citizens.'
'2. The ruling class of your country does not want to do what has to be done. In which case that ruling class is guilty of premeditated mass murder on a scale never seen since WWII.'
'Those two possibilities are not mutually exclusive — it is clear that quite a few countries are both incapable of doing actual public health the way it’s supposed to be done & have leadership that does not want it anyway.'
'But there are clear examples where the virus was contained and then it was deliberately let loose....In NZ the scientists all of a sudden were left out of the loop and the government announced it is abandoning elimination. Clearly against their advice.'
Anyone seen any coverage of NZ's decision to abandon #ZeroCovid over the objections of their scientists?
