er, no. Not worse than Brazil. Currently 7th in the world in terms of overall deaths (you'll have to sort the columns yourself) and fewer deaths than the UK.Originally Posted by Muddy Retriever
and the reason?
“Peru’s response was right on time,” said Elmer Huerta, a Peruvian doctor and trusted broadcaster on public health matters for Latin American audiences. “It was the first country in Latin America to respond with a lockdown.“But the problem was people’s behaviour,” he said. “The fact that on the eighth week of confinement you have thousands of people who are positive [for Covid-19] means that those people got the virus while the country was in lockdown – which means they did not respect the law.”
A bit like what's going on in the north/north-west by all accounts......Unless, of course, lockdowns actually cause the spread of the virus, just like wearing a face covering does. Stands to reason, after all....
