Here's probably the easiest chart to comprehend quickly:
We did a half-assed job of the "hammer," so our progress line is probably kinda sorta in between the red and green curves. That means that the whole thing has shifted to the right a bit.
We also don't have "proper testing, contact tracing, quarantining, isolating" down, which means that the green line on the right is higher than we'd hoped.
The primary point is just that this was never going to be a short-term thing. Anyone implying otherwise either didn't really dig into it or was just blinded by wishful thinking.
