Many don't seem to be able to get past the fact that not every response from the government is not only instant but perfect.
Even when everything isn't going to hell at the same time that is not a reasonable position.
My brother, a wise owl, has a saying - "you can have it right, or you can have it now, but you can't have it right now".
If the high level of concern turns out to be 'overblown' that will be a nice problem. Certainly better than the opposite, which remains a very real risk - rapid and nasty mutation could mean no effective vaccines in the expected timescale.
