Working very well, England has the worst excess death rate of Europe, holidays allowed, then quarantine 2 weeks later... but yes, you could very well be right that is a factor.
On top of being allowed to go to pubs, which astoundingly still going ahead in the North.

Scotland, yes, a big problem with carehomes and nr3.
Weirdly NI is only nr 8 (again lots of carehome deaths) as it's not densely populated, like Scotland though our big cities are smaller.
Both of course were not in control of early shutdowns/furlough payments, though could have done better.
But DoorMatt and redBusBoris have really no excuse.
