Ok one story you don't hear much about is how Sweden has handled this corona mess. NOTHING changed as far as the general public. ONLY thing shut down is nursing homes and elderly folks are ask to stay away from crowds. Their death rate per capita is lower than ours !!!! Kids in school economy intact. No hand outs because government forced people to close. Ok so who handled this right . IF we destroyed our economy, fell trillions farther in debt , PLUS got Biden elected than I vote we dropped the ball.
They want to base Everything on stats then use all of them. A country that changed nothing has the same death rate as those that closed and cowered in place . HMMMMMMM??

The death rate in Sweden is about 5 times the rate of neighboring countries, [Norway, Finland, Denmark]. So yeah, great job Sweden!

Dont know about Sweden, but anyone who thinks we got it right, (US and Canada) has their head in the sand. We ruined an entire economy and added so much to the national debt it puts us in a very precarious position for years to come....all for a virus with a mortality rate about like the flu.

Two California doctors gave a press conference a few days ago that everyone should watch. They laid out the real facts.

If it is the one I am thinking it is, I watched it yesterday. Made the most sense of anything I have seen date and used only verifiable, publicly available data.

But unfortunately, the You Tube Police have censored and removed the video. They apparently do not want Facts made available to the masses!

The short version ----- they understood why the actions were taken initially, based on projected scenarios. But now we have hard data that shows that those early projections were way off. And the reality does not support the drastic measures continuing. They also pointed out the myriad of other problems that the continuing shutdown is and will cause.

Sweden as opted for the longer term herd immunity approach. It maybe a better route we don't know for sure. About a month ago Trump was stating how bad things in Sweden were in one of his briefings. I have not heard him or any others on the task force raising the issue of using herd immunity as the method. Over time herd immunity will probably come about, it is just what percent of the world population will be forced be isolated and how long. In the USA there are roughly 50 million people over 65 years old and if they are isolated for extended periods they won't contribute a lot to the total economy.

You need to go look at the data. Compare it to it's next door neighbor Norway that did lock down. Very little difference in the infection or mortality rate.

Somalis also spread Covid-19 badly in Italy and Greece. We should not allow poor quality immigrants like Somalis into the US ever again.

The largest Scandinavian country by area is Sweden. This nation is also the most populous with a population exceeding 10 million. Both Norway and Denmark each have less than 6 million inhabitants. Total population of all Scandinavian countries is 29 million.

According to the data Bryce just presented, Sweden's superb handling of the crisis has resulted in three times as many deaths as Norway, Denmark and Finland COMBINED!

Sweden only has a population density of 64 people per square mile compared to Denmark's 347 people per square mile. You would think all other things being equal, that Denmark would have many more cases proportionately due to it's population density being over 5 times greater.

But they aren’t equal, are they? Based on what you said there is no comparison and no point in comparing that way.

My point was Sweden's experiment likely led to a much higher infection and death rate.
