Sweden has one of the highest ratio of people that will be able to work for home. Something else to remember, U.K. had a similar policy as Sweden before quickly reversing course after their ill / death numbers hit a certain number before they decided on a country lockdown on March 23. Simply, be assure that Sweden also has a certain level too in which they will change their minds and reverse course too. Info for Realists and posted by other Realists: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/sweden/ https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/...end-bets-citizens-acting-responsibly-n1172781 “It’s clear that what has been done so far has been insufficient, above all concerning the number of tests,” said Sten Linnarsson, a professor of molecular systems biology at the Karolinska Institutet, a prominent medical university in Sweden. Tegnell said the strategy was also informed by the country’s societal structure where people tend to live separately rather than in extended familial groups. Keep in mind that Sweden is not just sitting around. They are getting prepared just in case they need to change course from their current policy. The next two weeks will be critical all around the world including in Sweden because it has very liberal border policies with Finland, Denmark and Norway. Denmark @ https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/denmark/ Norway @ https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/norway/ Worldmeters currently is not able to access real-time info from the health authorities in Finland but as the time of my post...Finland has about 17 deaths, 62 critically ill and total of about 1446 cases. Reminder, Coronavirus is a highly contagious illness. You only need just one person to "ignore" the recommendations that the health authorities in Sweden has recommended...just one person to screw over the entire country. By the way, more realistic numbers... Here's the current accurate numbers for the U.K. @ https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/uk/ 29,474 total Coronavirus cases...2352 deaths. I'll post an update for you in two weeks after the two week critical period. wrbtrader
UK Caved to snowflake pressure sadly. Sweden, we'll see and judge how it goes and if they stick it out, which I suspect they will, Israel I believe isn't locking down either. If Swedens, Dead %%% isn't far of say the UK's, then I say that's a worthy trade of, they won't be claiming deaths that aren't covid19 that's for sure. Be Fine, by the time UK locked down, too late especially in London most of us already have it, just awaiting symptoms and lots coming down with currently. Swedens army is building a big hospital to handle the surge, be fine. Population 10Mil, tad bigger than London or NYC!!
They caved because the health officials had presented their data and prediction models that has so far...accurate. Arguing with the data is a snowflake response. Reminder, right now...29,474 total Coronavirus cases / 2352 deaths wrbtrader
2352 WITH, not neccesarily BY/FROM the Virus. Shit load of heart attacks and other normal every day deaths that have all been classed in there. Last 2 days are fudged with heart attack victims found then later tested positive. 100's dying daily from heart attacks, weaks of in activity and comfort eating.
Excess deaths are really bad in Italy. You can look at any town over the last X years for average March deaths. And compare how many died in March 2020. If you do that Italy looks even worse. As lots died at home and werent even recorded in the official figures.
I'm sure you can easily validate your conspiracy theory because what you're suggesting will not only get someone fired but arrested if they presented false / fudged / alter data to the health officials in the U.K. involving heart attacks and Covid-19. Simply, another snowflake response by you unless you can name the organization that's fudging the data. Until then, I'll respond to you in two weeks with the updated U.K. numbers by a fellow realist (me) after the critical two week period. wrbtrader
Italy been hit hard, damn good health care system keeping people alive longer than elsewhere, so more old people, not denying that. Going to hit 30K I'd guess.
No, there not lying in the UK, they are openly saying, deaths where people tested positive for C19, they are not saying Deaths directly from C19, so heart attack, Car crash you test with it, up go the numbers. 2 weeks of no scared snowflake, yes please!!
You realise, 30K is still only 0.05% of population so Much Much less than the percentages being handed around. 23% aged 60+ so 14Mil old people, 0.22% of old people 1 in 500. No where near as bad, even if it goes to 60K which it really shouldn't. Can't find Flu numbers for Italy.
+569 more heart attack deaths overnight in the U.K. Curious why the U.K. suddenly had so many unusual number of people with coronary heart disease in March and then again since my last post yesterday in this thread about the stats that many refuse to understand ? (don't answer the question) https://www.euronews.com/2020/04/01/debunked-no-lemon-in-hot-water-is-not-a-cure-for-covid-19 Reminds me about the cure out of the U.K. about drinking lemon tea will keep you immune. sick sarcasm wrbtrader
