Considering the other government officials resigning, I am starting to think there may be something going on. Probably that they are starting to admit to themselves that it was absolutely an international embarrassment what they were doing, and also that the harder they beat people the more they were willing to rise up. And I think the reason you have seen so many governments start walking back their mandates and lockdowns is because they are starting to reach the end of their methods. And their surveillance (legal or otherwise) is starting to say that there is an uncontrollably large amount of people entering "no more fucks to give" territory.
