So, in the UK we can rightly get angry about the incompetence and stupidity of our government's early response - Johnson boasting about shaking hands, talking about "taking it on the chin" following the malevolent ignorant advice of Cummings et al. And we look with envy at, say, Germany, for their current leadership. But then:
Trump is way worse than the Johnson cabinet (though US citizens in many states will benefit from the federal consituttion of the US and the actions of state governments).
Bolsonaro is way worse even than Trump, and (until today) I would have thought nobody could go lower; but
The leaders of Turkmenistan are trying to get, probably succeeding in getting, under the Bolsonaro bar - now I can't find the story (on BBC or perhaps Guardian site) about the government banning all mention of the disease.
