Questo dimostra di nuovo che la strategia attuale (di tutta l'Europa), anche con il livello elevato di vaccinazione, è sbagliata. L'unica cosa sensata sarebbe la strategia di eliminazione. https://t.co/v4syn7tgUo

@SoozUK Did they initially go on a complete and total lockdown at only 100 cases, with everyone complying with it, and with masking? This isn't rocket science, people. https://t.co/ame2TBJfpX
