I don't share your vision. Things are always obvious in the hindsight, but in reality, at least in Western Europe we did quite well. The challenges that governments faced were huge and numerous (if you account for social, economical, technical and political aspects).

Of course we can always do better, but the reality is that today, we have dozens of millions of people double-vaxxed here, and we're making progress.

Even looking within western EU, things could have been done so much better - remember how poorly Italy handled the start of the pandemic? But the true disaster is in Eastern and to a lesser degree central EU, as well as India, Pakistan, etc. Not to mention the trainwreck that was in the USA and to a lesser degree South America.

Try to look outside the box, the world is more than just western EU.
