Plenty of politicians have done a really good job--Sununu, Baker, Biden, to include both parties. Meanwhile, dozens of leading Republicans have scoffed at anti-COVID measures, encouraging many to object on political grounds to a scientific approach--as the patient did.

So I'm sad to hear about the person you describe, but I do not think the sides share the blame equally.
