If they are right, the UK government managed to not cause more damage than the virus itself. Guessing we probably did roughly similar. Lots of places in the US pursued less damaging policies than the UK, but we did have our most populous areas act the most heavy handed, so that probably balances out to an extent. I was really expecting to find out we did more damage than the virus itself. Of course, this is just looking at deaths. Could be a different picture if you include all the other harms.
