I think if SCFC1EP re-reads their post or investigates what they’re saying more they may be a little embarrassed. Brazil - overtaken Spain and Italy and could beat UK too for deaths....I could mention their politics being of the Trump/Johnson variety but best to leave it there.
Eastern Europe - poor....hopefully just ill informed rather than British exceptionalism. As nations yes they are ‘poorer’ than the UK on GDP, incomes etc but when talking about poorer communities in this context it means deprivation etc and the links to poor health that brings. Not to mention disproportionate numbers of BME staff in the most exposed health roles and other key worker roles who live in larger cities and ride around on more risky public transport.
India...brought in hard line curfew. So not comparable with UK where we’ve been lax.
