UK Government not well seen by its population regarding Covid management. Who would have thought Boris was a sham, eh ? 😜😝

Missing and I would be curious -- Brazil and US of A.

@design_RG How does the USA get 3rd highest with 100,000 deaths. ?

Where exactly is UK on the list, I would assume below France at -9

@design_RG
If it helps I have made a screen grab of the whole list, it seems the USA is near the bottom too, along with Mexico and UK

@zleap Thanks Paul!!

Yes, that is VERY meaningful -- and it's confirmed by seeing the stellar rating of New Zealand's government, one of the best handled countries during this pandemic.

Would be curious to see where Brazil stands in this -- sadly the country is under really BAD federal management. An idiotic man, who models himself on the current White House occupant, and is more interested in dissent and internal conflict and his chances on a 2022 election there than with the people's health and the pandemic impact.

I have friends living there, and I follow the news. Bad. I despair from reading pretty quickly.

Folha de São Paulo is an important and distinguished national circulation newspaper there - I would equate it to the NY Times in terms of importance to the local journalism.

They have an English page, with translated articles here : www1.folha.uol.com.br/internac

Brazil was for a time even above the UK in GDP, but has descended from that, after years of turmoil and economic malaise. Below a snapshot of their current English headline, top of the page linked above.
