There's too much mobility in the world, tourism is quite a vehicle for spread and too many countries went all in on tourism - I'm from Portugal, and clearly our government gave priority to tourism over public health, over and over again. Not because they wanted to, but because they had to - for economical and political reasons. Just like they stripped off all measures during Christmas for political goodwill, and it caused the death of thounsands. Very few were, and are, willing to end this pandemic. One thing was made very clear: politicians will do anything - ANYTHING - to keep themselves in power. This pandemic turned to the worst when it became a political weapon. They placed too much hope on the vaccine, when it should have been considered one valuable tool to end this pandemic, not the final fix for it. Only time will tell the long term effects of these decisions.
