To wear or not to wear - that is the question. You may observe the numbers in Czechia and Slovakia with the hardest measures in EU, recalled ~10d back. They say they are leading in EU. Wearing the face mask outside your home in CZ is mandatory, in SK required (and all wear it), it runs that way for at least a weak already, afaik. You cannot source the off the shelf masks for the entire population today. People do DIY ones, it became a national hobby. Those mask protect people around you from the droplets you are breathing OUT. Even with a simple textile-DIY-one it is expected at least 30% effectiveness of the FFP3 one (some say 90%). That is a pretty good number provided the masks are worn by everybody. The social distancing is required as well. Below a shot of the new Slovakian government appointed today :) |

He has his balls tied in a knot, if I got the idiom translated correctly. --- End quote --- it has been the same here with politicians who, just to oppose the government continuously changed their position: - "stricter rules" (they meant a nonsensical quarantine just for Chinese children in January), - "it is just a cold", after the government started to put some restrictions, - a few days later some politicians of the same party asked for much stricter quarantine rules, others for a stop to quarantine... they are just crazy... in all this madness they are just able to think about propaganda the reality is that nobody knew anything about this virus, many of WHO initial assumptions have failed and most countries in the world never had to face a similar situation --- End quote --- Wasn't it the "Lega" man Salvini who pushed to keep all borders open when the threat became apparent? But I guess others chimed in quickly. It's been the same here, politicians acted timidly in the beginning only to now trump each other with increasingly severe measures to stop the spread. |

Futhermore, he said that the italian public healthcare is less quality than the spanish public healthcare when Italy was 1000 deaths. |

It is lost battle. |
