England's contact-tracing saga is at the heart of the government's failures

The saga of the attempts to set up an English test-and-trace system is perhaps the central story of the government’s Covid-19 failure.

Crass negativity is exactly why the Guardian has such atrocious circulation figures. We have Track and Trace, we had capacity that exceeded expectations and the only real fault lay with jo public not 'playing the game'

The Government Is At The Heart Of The Government Failures.

Dido...more like dodo

Will they ever get on top of this...... Sadly I think not!

There is something rotten in there somewhere. Every other country manages a track and trace but not us. Why?

The government will just do what it is good at: deny it and then move on to deny the next problem. Simple.

Govt need to control from the centre is a huge issue

Haven't you defended yourself yet? Product of slavery Hypocrite

Along with; Late lockdown, open borders, lack of PPE, back to school too early, blind eye to the Cummins excursions, opening pubs and leisure travel too early and no manditory coverings in enclosed public spaces until recently.

Rubbish!

Ah the famous world beating app that b Never arrived

Scottish schools used by Tory and SNP, before English results and reopening ,as guinea pigs. First Exam Results.Children and Teachers in deprived areas estimate grades reduced .Today after a week finally changed All Scottish schools open tomorrow. Futures and Now lives at risk.

But why? Please give some credit..

I live in the U.S., what is this contact-tracing thing?(sarcasm)

Yes well they don’t have a government being ruled by Trump so I wouldn’t call it a complete failure.
