10,000 UK coronavirus deaths: don't forget that this was preventable | Nesrine Malik

Stay-at-home mantras and war talk must not distract us from holding the government to account for the nation’s grief, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

Cast your mind back four weeks. Remember how it felt to see those numbers from Italy, how our hearts sank every time they went up by the hundreds. Relocate that pain and recall that this need not have happened. Ten thousand people, in UK hospitals alone, have now died.

Really interesting (and unexpected but maybe naively so) overlap on here between those defending Johnson/govt& #39;s response to pandemic and abusive racists
