I disagree, at least in Australia. Poor government policy, or at least implementation, has resulted in many unnecessary cases and consequently, some deaths. Once the implementation improved, the number of cases dropped, in Victoria at least, to zero. Now life is pretty much back to normal. So Australia can be seen as a test case where strict quarantine, social distancing and mask wearing regulations have been enforced. It's been hard, especially on the medical profession. Now life is returning to normal. The economy is springing back to life. For sure it could all fall apart at any time. Just one undetected case could undo all the hard work of many months. From what I've observed, the real false rhetoric is on the "it's not a problem" side. I suspect that the real winner in the USA and other sceptic nations is the funeral industry.
