Great to be sceptical about it, because that’s how we end up with robust plans that stand a chance of actually working.
But, for all the protesting about how GBD would have failed the old and vulnerable, it missed the point that we actually already did fail the old and vulnerable.
It’s argued as if we succeeded.
But for all our efforts, we failed those that really did need protection. They were stuck. (And some still are.) Community transmission rates were really high. And that matters when you’re in a vulnerable group, because anything >0 is basically “high”.
All our efforts were general protection, which helped groups that didn’t really need help, but didn’t help the groups that really needed it.
