I do think it's harsh to blame the government, especially when you have the benefit of hindsight and of course we are now all experts on viruses and the control of. There were lots of things going on, many of which were outside their direct control. I'm sure there are things which could have been done differently and (again with 2020 hindsight) you could say mistakes may have been made but it's not always right or necessary to go looking for someone to blame.
