I think "leading" via information hiding / suppressing / tweaking / falsifying against non-thinking, but reacting or evolving antagonist has to stop. In a military campaign such behaviour makes sense, in natural disaster or epidemic you should hang those responsible for more deaths due to statements said with knowledge of being untrue.
>FWIW, NZ remains in highest level of lockdown with some politicians and celebrity scientists convinced that C19 elimination remains the only desirable outcome. After dust settles, I'm going to recommend strongly that you need clinicians not just scientists should future pandemics arise; otherwise you risk "the operation was a success but the patient died" scenarios. Perhaps the same is true in military matters, with "dirt under fingernails" sometimes a better indicator of insight than political persuasion or proximity to beltway cliques.
