But it simply doesn't work, and I've told you what does work being shielding then let ut spread among the not at risk, but because that's you and your scared you don't want to get it, your going to continue to try not getting it, ignore Shielding as it won't save you and let thousands die. Not just you, nobody can ever talk about shielding the at risk, cause you just don't care, your caring act, is just that, only people anyone cares about is themselves, really quite sickening. Your BS doesn't work, everyone is doing it and people are still dying, Sweden just shielding, they dropped it, saw a spike in cases put it back in again, difference is they haven't scared there population to death. So my way is proven to work and your way is failimg miserably all over the world, but I'm wrong lol fuck your dumb! Bloody scared sheep!
There you go again. I never said anything about shielding. And you never ASKED me what I thought about shielding. Debate my comments/answers. Not what you never asked, and I never commented about. Does that make sense to you? Secondly, "shielding" is not a term used in the U.S. regarding the pandemic. So here's why "nobody" talks about shielding: We don't know exactly wtf you're talking about. Nobody except you is talking about "shielding." Is shielding the plexiglass barriers that were put up in retail locations. Is shielding the act of isolating high-risk individuals. See how you've pigeon-holed me into a position I said absolutely nothing about--even after I'd already illustrated how you've put words in my mouth? This is one reason why many think Trump supporters are retarded--you don't seem to be able to think with much logic. Everything is unsubstantiated, wild ass, conspiracy theories. You all take simple shit and FUBAR it up. Just like your Dear Leader. Here's how it could have gone: @Turveyd : What do you think about the use of shielding? @userque : What's "shielding?" @Turveyd : Oh, yeah, in the U.K., "shielding is ..." TooLongForMeToComprehend: Try asking before just willy-nilly assuming the positions of others.
I've stated before the different approach Sweden rest of the world is sheilding and included high risk people. Now you've worked out what shielding is, why USA death rate is so high 0.2% and climbing, sweden 0.06% and stable. See I think the logical thing to do is, shield the at risk, let the virus spread and burn itself out, like Sweden then use vaccines for the at risk only, to get them out sooner, this is the best real proven way to handle this. Do you agree or do you want to just not get it yourself cause the media has scared the crap out of everyone? P.s. is what everyone over here is doing, too scared to think straight, ignoring shielding and letting old / at risk die.
I haven't looked into what Sweden, or any other country is doing [outside of my own], and since you've provided no link; I'll look it up later, when I have a moment. The only assertions I made to you were that, though not perfect, masks and distance will slow the spread. I have not commented pro, nor against lockdowns in our discussion. But I did agree with you that the pub lockdowns, as you describe them, seem unfair. Again, do you see how you've pigeon-holed and assumed me into a position I did not take? Here, let me simplify, I asserted: 1. Though not perfect, masks slow the spread. 2. Though not perfect, distance slows the spread. 3. Your pub lockdowns do seem illogical. Certainly you also agree with the above. But your lack of logical thinking couldn't allow you to see that we haven't yet disagreed. Yet, you lashed out, exhibiting symptoms of TDS and Snowflakitus. Everyone wants to blabber/assume/ignore. No one wants to communicate/listen/ask. Again, I'll look into Sweden and post later.
Slows the Spead 5%, or reduced the deaths at the at risk by 95%, I don't consider 5% working, but I do consider 95% working. UK charts, Shielding stopped the first wave, then removed and up the deaths go, only look at the deaths. Still got Masks, social distancing, lockdowns, bullshit bullshit bullshit, deaths stable @500 per day area. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/uk Or Sweden, the pulled the Shielding for a while, spotted the spike in cases and put it back in, check out the deaths chart, dropping nicely just like Wave 1 effect from shielding. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/sweden So Shield ?? or continue with lies about masks and social distancing, which is doing fuck all ?? It's SHIELD, I'm right, you / your group just too damn stupid/scared to realise it. Plus Here4Money agrees with you, that proves your wrong, when pricks like that are on your side ffs!!
Turveyd Many do not wear face masks, many still protest without face masks, many do not social distance just like other countries because to them its the government trying to control them. Countries that have a very large number of their citizens that in fact do wear face masks, in fact do social distance, in fact to sanitize public surfaces and wash their hands... Those countries have excellent Covid-19 performance even though they too are currently freaking out when their number gradually increased to a total of several thousand during this Pandemic...I'll repeat...a total of several thousand. Oh wait, they also did not lockdown. Simply, its not the government...its the idiotic citizens in the countries that are having problems. I'm not in favor of lockdowns but I am in favor of restrictions, quarantine for those that are infected, face mask wearing (not around the neck, not on the chin only, not pulled down to talk to the person next to you, not pulled down to eat / drink in public places surrounded by others doing the same, not wearing an inappropriate face mask). You Reap What You Sow The goal is to slow the spread because its impossible to prevent 100% the spread because many do not wear face masks, do not social distance and do not wash / sanitize their hands before touching other surfaces or before touching their own face masks. Slow the spread until > 60% are vaccinated in the population or at the minimum in your own community. Christmas is around the corner and millions air travel the past few days to be with loved ones for Christmas... A small percentage of them will not be here for next Christmas because they just couldn't stick it out a few more months until they were vaccinated. wrbtrader
Look closely at Sweden in comparison to other scandinavian countries like Denmark, Norway and Finland. Check out why Denmark has recently been increasing dramatically with infections, hospitalizations, ICU's occupancy while Norway and Finland have much better Covid-19 performance. Also, look closely at Sweden in comparison to other countries that did not lockdown such as New Zealand, Japan, Taiwan and South Korea. Those countries are greatly outperforming Sweden in their Covid-19 performance because they have excellent contact tracing, they know how to shut their borders if needed, they shut down the violators that go maskless / over-capacity in social gatherings. Yet, like other countries...they have Covidiots too. I've recently discover after suspecting for several months that countries like Canada, United States and a few others that had travel bans or shut their borders... In reality those that were rich or had private planes are able to "easily" bypass those travel bans without having to do any testing nor quarantine after they arrived to their destinations.
