The UK has definitely suffered exactly the same problem. We still don't have even a track and trace app and testing is patchy.

I believe we (somehow??) spent 11 million quid on that app, which does not even work.

Plus we haven't even bothered to adopt Apple's version. When you try to turn that on it says it's not been enabled by your local health authority.
