    The worlds not perfect. Be nice if it was.

    Should there have been a co ordinated government response world wide and then on going vaccination roll out world wide? Yep, agree with you.

    New Zealand did a great job in managing it.

    Australia did OK as well despite a few fumbles.

    Mainly because both have 1st world medical systems and also are isolated from other countries by sea and big distances between populations centres so could implement effective lock downs and mask mandates where needed.

    WA and Tasmania effectively led normal lives throughout the epidemic with the borders shut with only short lockdowns. Interstate commerce and travel were hit hard obviously.

    Both countries are now fully opened up with no restrictions because there are effective vaccines and anti viral treatments.

    My main point was that the anti maskers were irrelevant to the outcome except were they exposed other people to the virus needlessly.
