Which has what to do with the post you quoted?

People were clamouring for more home tests, they couldn’t get out, they couldn’t drive, so presumably all those tests snapped up will be sent back ASAP as they all have symptoms ...the people who turned up at test centres yesterday won’t have their results either so what’s the difference .., and if they don’t return them and are saving them for a later date, shame on them for taking a test from someone who could really do with it

I think they should count home tests that have arrived back. So, they don't necessarily have the results yet but have received the samples for those tests to say they have been "done". Counting tests that have been posted is far too unreliable IMO.

I think most people will be happy when the government stops playing with people’s lives tbh

They are not really playing with peoples lives over the testing though are they

The government is doing a good job... because people are criticising their behaviour? That’s a wild take

Definitely a wild take, you see people in the UK moaning and laughing at how North Korean's worship their government like some god and ridicule those who dare question them. However we've been developing the same principles here any question of their action is responded by "HOw DAre YOu QUeStion THem" "They're doing the best they can"

The government shouldn't be doing the best they can that's what you say to school children who are trying to achieve a good grade. A government's job is to do whatever is in the public interest for health and safety and do that to the highest standard.

North Koreans dont worship their government at all

If they disagreed with anything they would have a bullet in the head for the trouble

Y’know, I think Putin is actually doing a pretty good job, I mean, everyone slags him off so he must be right? Good ol Putin, killing those gays and ruining democracy, people are way too mean

The only people being political are the ones saying anyone who criticises the government are clearly biased, sour faced lefties

I wouldnt call making claims we have the worst death rate because we are adding on the care home deaths while then saying the deaths in care homes in other countries are not an important stat

[Denver]

Also the fact this people are getting so angry yet we are testing more people then other countries

Germany and South Korea have been testing 100K and more over a long time period, one big test doesn't make us ahead of the game.

Based on what? You saying so?

The data disagrees, if you don’t have facts and figures to back up what you’re saying, you should stop, it’s embarrassing

He says, opting not to actually discuss the topic.

Yet, it's everyone else who has the issue.
