The medical community as a whole, in numerous nations, dropped the ball quite badly over the last three years.
It was obvious by mid-2020 that this situation was severely overblown, and that pretty much every reaction was far more harmful than beneficial.
Unjustifiable and baseless paranoia caused severe inefficiencies within medical systems that are inefficient even at the best of times.
A particularly unfortunate aspect was how the wider medical community itself, including regulatory bodies, immediately and ruthlessly shut down any of the questioning and feedback from physicians, scientists, and even some politicians that would have brought light to the harmful policies much sooner.
Instead, we had to wait two years in some places for common sense to even begin to return. It should never have been like that to begin with.
