The UK had arguably the best public health data in the world, but nearly 250,000 people still died.
Big data. FFS. Hancock and Johnson should be in fucking jail.
Hmmm only have had a quick look but from a brief look into trying to find out who harvardpublichealth actually are, not sure I trust anything what they say not to be some political/medical propaganda.
Lets not forget they put all the data in an excel spreadsheet and then lost a lot. So yeah best public health data in the world… very much arguable.
The NHS is well known for out of date pcs etc. Data is often restricted from department to department. Gathering group data for reseach is possible. But far from responsive.
The system is just not designed for the short notice analasis the pandemic required. Because making it so has never been a consideration. Instead the history has been about researchers analysing data over time.
Because we had an absolute moron in charge at the time
I was going to say that data is great but good decisions still have to be made based on it. Data can’t do it alone.
which one of the many?
