BS article is BS. Sweden has been averaging in the low single digits for Covid deaths. Sweden is not locking down. You really went with a Yahoo News article?

I don't think you know how average's work. Also their death rate for people who get sick is 5.8%. Much higher than the rest of the world.

5.8% of 1% positive infection rate, of which we don't even know how many of those positives were asymptomatic or had mild symptoms.

But ya, let's fricking panic.

Outside of a handful of areas in the country, no hospital system was ever overwhelmed. The lockdowns were ridiculous and just delayed the inevitable.

Sweden has recorded a much higher per capita death rate than its neighbors since adopting this strategy.


like how they just slip this in to this ridiculous fear porned sentence

"much higher" (so scientific) than "its neighbors" (randomly pick who you want to compare)

i'm sure their death per capita is "much lower" than other "neighbors" too.

or "pretty close" per capita to other "neighbors" as well

But they made the Karens feel safe, and that's really what it's all about...feeling safe in these uncertain times.

We're all in this together just until we can flatten the curve.

You mongoloids keep repeating this, but the 1 per day thing is the current rate of COVID deaths there.

Keep hiding in your basement.

They are getting their own thanos finger snap for free.

Probably help the country out.

The folks that made it would gain wealth and goods and the country Itself would have as many people needing something

Not to mention that the current Case Fatality Rate is far lower than the cumulative CFR. Starting in august, the CFR is now 0.67% and trending down every day.
