Its truly fascinating


I was just going to say this.

A coworker mentioned about them opening back up their schools with social distancing measures. The average student per teacher ratio in Sweden as of 2011? 12 to 1.

The average in the US? 17 to 1. And that’s on the low end.

So, you apparently have evidence that greater than 40% (minimum of beginning herd immunity) of all Swedes will have had this virus within two weeks. You are a master of bullshite.

I think Sweden did things well but comparing the US to a country of like 10 mil is asinine

Liberal freaks? The Swedes are as liberal as they come. We have a Republican Commander and Chief - I blame the Republican extremists. They let the Chinese bulldoze them on this one.

Those who will die will die — benit now or later. I mean it buys time to find a treatment but all we’re doing is prolonging this crap.

Open it up. I need a haircut and want my favorite margarita. I say this as my placenof employment has ~75% infection rate and our own leaders are saying to open this up.

It remains to be seen how Sweden fares in the long run. Maybe theY will develop a herd immunity.
But the notion that Sweden did nothing and kept business as usual us wrong. And their economy has been impacted negatively as people stay home.

No one will know for a while when Sweden will reach herd immunity or what the cost will be in lives. We'll have to let it play out. But at least they recognize that this can't be eliminated and that herd immunity is the only way to get past it (while trying to do enough to protect their health care system).

We apparently think that if we just hide ling enough and do enough testing the virus can be contained. I think the only chance to win with that strategy was lost in Wuhan and that Sweden may have the better approach. We'll see. I wonder which country will be having concerts and sporting events this Fall.

This is stupidly obvious. The dead usually die. Now, picking who you care die prematurely or not is up to you.
