What’s Andrew’s point? That we would have had a better Brexit if Covid hadn’t happened?

Or: weren’t the EU countries lucky in dealing with Covid in that they didn’t have to plan for no-deal Brexit?

So far as I can see, many countries around the world implemented lockdown because Covid was unknown as to clinical outcomes, it was particularly contagious and there was no vaccine.

As it turned out, there was very little difference in behaviour and outcome between the European type countries.
