...but Covid lockdowns should convince us that government is not infallible.

No one is claiming that they are. However, they tend to do the best they can with the information they have at the time. I'm referring to the government (civil employees), not the elected officials. Elected officials have agendas, and often whore to their base. Civil servants generally are trying to do their jobs the best they can (just like the rest of us).
