It's hardly unsurprising that when it first crops up, there's a certain level of denial.
And why optimistic decisions are taken initially. It’s why the second and third waves and making similar mistakes is so poor. Also why being transparent about the uk variant and supporting other countries to identify them was a really good thingtbh, you can see in this thread, a fair number of people deciding at various points this was nothing serious, really.

U.K.’s Johnson Narrowly Defeats Tory Revolt Over Trade, Genocide
Boris Johnson narrowly defeated a second rebellion by members of his Conservative Party after they pressed for U.K. courts to have the power to outlaw trade deals with countries found to be committing genocide.www.bloomberg.com

Dunno. Dunno much about the WHO either.
What I do know is.
Pandemics aren't an uncommon thing.
Jumping from animal to human isn't uncommon.
Therefore, the most likely conclusion is that this is a natural phenomena, exacerbated by modern shrinking of the world.
All true.....
but its one hell of a coincidence isn't it? ....or rather a series of massive coincidences....
Wuhan is the epicentre of a novel coronavirus.
There are no earlier cases recorded anywhere on the planet than in Wuhan.
The first (official) outbreak was less then 500m from the class 4 lab.
That class 4 lab specialises in the capture, study & manipulation of novel coronaviruses.
Wuhans hospital activity was satellite mapped and noted as highly active as far back as Sept. 2019.
The Chinese state continuously use huge amounts of subterfuge to cover their activities whether that be the "re-education" of 1m+ muslims, the enslavery of entire ethnic groups, the enforcement of a police state on HK etc .etc.
.....still, nothing to see here apparently......probably just some dodgy frozen meat they reckon......
Well my theory.
It was all kicking off in Hong Kong. China was not shown in a good light at all. Woukdnt suprise me if this wasn't an accidental leak of the virus designed to suppress the tensions there but it all went tits.
Just taking my tin foil hat off now
Or it was a botch up of containment at the lab facility and the government in their panic decided to cover it up rather than come clean.
Well just to be clear, I'm not suggesting any mad conspiracy or planned releases or any such nonesense.....
...I just suspect another cover-up by the chinese state regarding an accidental biosecurity lapse.
I'm pretty sure I'd also be fairly suspicious if a deadly outbreak of something being studied/modified/weaponised broke out at a coffee shop just up the road from Porton Down to to be fair...
EDIT:
Yep...its virus after all.....we're not talking some geezer in raybans sneaking a test tube out under his raincoat.....
.......were just one faulty fume cupboard away from disaster man!
Or a Russian or two got poisoned, perchance...?f a deadly outbreak of something being studied/modified/weaponised broke out at a coffee shop just up the road from Porton Down to to be fair..
I agree with you.10 years in jail for going abroad.
No holidays until everyone is jabbed.
I just don't believe anything they say anymore.
Yes, the virus is extremely deadly to certain parts of the population, but still, deaths in healthy people under the age of 60 are still in the hundreds. No, I'm not a 'covid-denier', but this thing is not going to be 'over', ever, the way they are carrying on.
Lockdowns every winter can fuck off, too.
I think we need to resist the calls that are going to start demanding lockdown loosen over the next couple of weeks. I’m struggling with it as much as the next person but I don’t want to have to lock down again. Let’s kick this fucker this time. Get our cases down to nearly 0 and vaccine everybody then we don’t have to worry again. I don’t want to go to the pub for a week only for it to be denied again for another 6 months.Mum gets her first tomorrow. That’ll be everyone in my house bar me and the kids done then.
Not been paying attention. What’s all this about not removing lockdown? Surely once everyone’s vaccinated it’s job done? What’s the rationale?
Probably better for the economy too, if people areactually confident to go tothe pub etc.I think we need to resist the calls that are going to start demanding lockdown loosen over the next couple of weeks.

I agree with you.
At least we didn't get commie Corbyn and ended up like East Germany

I'm not really sure what Corbyn has got to do with my point to be honest.
My doctors is starting back up with vaccinations again this weekend. They've been on hold for a while despite saying they had stock of vaccine and just needed the go ahead from NHS England. Assume there was a concern about getting enough doses for peoples second jabs and they were being held back.Mum gets her first tomorrow. That’ll be everyone in my house bar me and the kids done then.

Completely agree. Would rather have a few extra weeks lockdown now than go too soon and mess it up.Yeah I think most of us can buckle down for one last push while we vaccinate. Just seeing people talking about no sports for two years and lockdowns every winter.
Completely agree. Would rather have a few extra weeks lockdown now than go too soon and mess it up.
If the pattern follows last year and things get better as we get towards summer given that will tie in with when we have a good chunk of the population vaccinated that seems the time to start easing restrictions.
Its never going to be an overnight open everything which some people seem to be expecting.
