I hate to say it, but seems to be some logic to your statements. I come from fearful place, almost completely missed by covid, went to complete lockdown as soon as stuff started happening in western europe, much quicker than any of those countries. Western european countries which were much slower with initial reaction were having massive spikes, some are just now getting out of the worst (ie UK). US is another example with its 'brilliant' current leadership. Brazil is actually another one, the president seems since beginning like the worst you can get in democracy, pure corrupt evil (until next one comes I guess).
