Sweden also had people not whining about masks and actually socially distanced something this board doesn't like to do

You know you might have a point if this board wasn't filled with people acting like masks aren't needed or that Sweeden when compared to other Scandinavian countries isn't looking as good

This board would be fine with masks and social distancing

If the restriction would have been remain 6 ft apart from people and wear a mask, but we aren’t closing anything you don’t think people would have been supportive of it?

From their health ministry's site:
quote:
What is your advice regarding face masks?
We do not currently recommend face masks in public settings since the scientific evidence around the effectiveness of face masks in combatting the spread of infection is unclear. However, there may be situations where face masks can be useful despite the uncertain state of knowledge about the effects.
Face masks must always be seen as complementary to other recommendations: stay at home when you have symptoms, wash your hands regularly and keep at a distance from others.
Why are countries acting differently over face masks?
The scientific evidence around the effectiveness of face masks in combatting the spread of infection is weak, which is why different countries have arrived at different recommendations.
Some countries have chosen to view face masks as a form of security and hope that universal use of face masks will reduce the risk of infection spreading from people who are in the incubation period, before the symptoms are apparent, or who have such mild or unspecific symptoms that they do not consider themselves ill.
The Public Health Agency of Sweden does not recommend the general use of face masks, as a face mask that itches or slips down below the nose may mean a person is regularly touching their mouth, eyes or nose with their hands, which can increase the risk of the infection spreading.
Use of a facemask may also encourage people with mild symptoms to go out into the community, which might increase the spread of infection.
The Public Health Agency of Sweden is constantly assessing the state of knowledge in this area and reviews new information from various sources.

The country that did best was Switzerland.
They basically did Sweden model but protected the old better.
Like 250/million dead.

I’ll throw this out there:
Perhaps this virus is one that thrives in warmer weather, considering the spikes in the US South in the summer, etc.
So, potentially we won’t see a second wave this winter

They probably didn't whine because, unlike us, they were given the chance to prove they could socially distance without shutting the country down.
