In my opinion, some people will never believe it is working because they don't like the concept. Or the cost.
So, places don't take sufficient timely measures and get hammered. Like Italy.
So other places take measures to try and not get hammered.
When they don't get hammered. Then people say you didn't need to take the measures. And they don't count the places that did get hammered because they are not in their back yard.
It's kind of like fire warnings.
And people who say we don't need no stinking fire warnings here, we're not on fire yet. Or they haven't had a fire in years because the conditions were not right, or they were just plain lucky. They ignore the fire warnings. Their communities burn to the ground. Their response: see, it didn't matter it was going to burn to the ground anyways. At least we kept the economy going a while longer.
Other communities enforce no burn periods. So, they don't have very many severe fires. And the fire marshal says "great job." The fire Marshal critics say, the lack of a fire proves the no burn period was unnecessary.
Stay safe.
