Political stability has a huge impact on how many countries have responded to the pandemic. In the US, there is a lot of distrust in our government that has inhibited a timely response to the outbreak.

Even bigger problem than distrust is incompetence. The only think czech prime minister is good at is PR. He does not care about anything else . Also the most import quality for his colleagues or advisors is loyalty. So czechia is ruled by marketing experts and people which agree with anything prime minister says.

This new lockdown will not help at all. PM will see popularity loss in april so he will open the country too much and it will lead to another outbreak.
