re 2nd wave....
Yes, in hindsight he did act too slow.....in hindsight.
But relative to the rest of the world, he is still ahead of schedule.

Of course there are simple reasons why he acted slow.....people were already b!tching and moaning about lockdowns and how we went into them too fast etc etc.
Damned if he does, damned if he didn't.

NOW people are b!tching about staying in them too long. Which i get. But playing devils advocate, he doesn't want to go through all this BS again, so he's trying to kill it within an inch of its life and be done with it for good.

Yes, its possible to do that and come out of lockdown.
Yes, its possible to do that earlier
etc
etc

But, he's over it, we're over it. He's taking things to the nth degree so we can all move on with life.
Is it perfect? No.
Does it reduce the chance of this thing coming back to bite him in the butt? Yes.
Is he copping some flack over it? Yes. Should he? Probably.
Hotel quarantine aside, i give him a B+.

A much more balanced view than some previous posts. As far as a mark goes, initial handling, 8/10. hotel quarantine, 2/10.
So its a pass (just) from me, many people have died that shouldn't have though, thats the problem here. As for the remedial action he has taken, thats hurt financially but he had no choice I guess. I am fortunate, I can afford to state home and not work if I had to, many are less fortunate and they are who I feel sorry for (as well as those who have lost loved ones and not able to say goodbye to).
