In Scotland, which we know is run by the much more competent Sturgeon with much more clear messaging, ummm:

- 73% of the population of care homes are thought to have the virus but the health Minister can't detail what guidance is given to care homes for dealing with that
- the govt have no idea what our R value is or how it's calculated (or at least, won't tell us)
- Critical Care Consultants in our largest A&E unit have to take to social media to get a response from the govt about actually providing some PPE
- it turns out there was a known outbreak at a conference on 26-27 Feb in Edinburgh which kicked everything into gear so that we banned mass gatherings .... 3 weeks later on the 16th March
- we're at 2500ish tests per day. Yes BJ has been getting pelters for struggling up to 100,000 per day. We are on 2500 per day.

If you're one of those who looks to Sturgeon as a better leader than Johnson, perhaps try and look past the style and spin and look for any substance or actions from her administration.

This substance or actions?

Do NOT get me started. The number of times I've had to put my phone down, turn off the radio and sit in a dark, quiet space to try and control how angry I am at that fwcin woman and all her lackeys and the fwcin idiots who chose not to see her for who she really is.....
It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

Hope this isn't the next pandemic. But if it is, are we prepared?

Trump will certainly be well placed to nip any of that vaccine nonsense in the bud with RFK.
