UK also shut down fairly hard and that still didn't stop the spread in nursing homes. So lockdown does not automatically seem to stop the contagion from coming into nursing homes.

Makes sense really. Maybe a focused effort should be made to protect nursing homes.

The UK shut down too late. People at the time of the Cheltenham Festival (10-13 March) were saying it shouldn't have happened, and now: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2020/apr/29/racing-ireland...

The UK did not shut down very hard nor early, New Zealands recently "relaxed" lockdown is basically the same has what the UK has been under
