Other countries have started locking down earlier and been far more strict. Their lockdown has had more effect and now they're beginning to come out of it.
UK locked down was late and has been soft - so not much change to infection rates etc are happening.
Might we have been better off not bothering? As it stands it looks as though we're going to have to continue this for much longer. I wonder whether a shorter and more severe lock down would have ended sooner.
