Yeah, and Singapore - which originally inspired all these Covid-19 tracing apps - is still refusing to go the Apple/Google route for the same reason. There's also a chronological issue, with the original app being well into development when Google and Apple released their approach. But fundamentally, this isn't about facts - it's about the British press having turned Covid-19 into a cynical, Brexit-related partisan football. Somehow starting development early and co-operating with countries like France and Germany on a shared approach turns into letting people die through "British exceptionalism", merely through the media carefully omitting the details that contradict that narrative and letting readers fill them back in differently in their heads. |
