When supply is limited the scale does matter.
The per-capita #CovidVaccine progress in UK (population 80m) can be also described as a "fiasco" when compared to that in Israel (population 9m).
And EU population is 450m.
@kravietz Vaccine fears or not, this is not a sign of Israelis doing a better job, just Israel doing a far more forceful job.
Have you seen the videos of how the Israelis who don’t get the vaccine are punished by not being able to go anywhere or do anything, even fly out of the country?
> who don’t get the vaccine are punished by not being able to go anywhere
I don't think they are "punished". They are just still subject to self-isolation while the vaccinated people are released, which is pretty pragmatic approach.
@kravietz My got one to go back to the office after a year. I can’t celebrate force from the government, removing wages, starving people, then forcing them to submit to survive. It’s not the American Way. I miss the American Way. That’s just the tiniest part of what Israel does.
From that view I only see the graph as the EU being freer than the UK.
I don't know about American way - or Polish or Russian way for that matter. Anyone who sticks to a specific "way" that might have been relevant 100, 500, 1000 years ago is at risk of doing things wrong when the civilisation changes...
@kravietz America is still the resistance of the world, where the individual still matters instead of the herd, and the people still care about the public instead of the state.
Doing things “wrong”? It’ll be the right things. Win or lose in the long run, it’ll be a blaze of glory, man, a blaze of glory. Long and painful for some, quick and simple for others, but a blaze of glory.
