    Some much for claims that children rarely get sick from COVID and they should only "lock-down the elderly". Sweden runs out of intensive care wards for children.

    More than 100 children in Sweden ill with Covid-19

    More than a hundred children in Sweden have become seriously ill after becoming infected with coronavirus, and as many as 30 have been close to losing their lives, Sweden's TT newswire has reported. The children have suffered from Hyperinflammation, which means their immune systems have begun to attack their own bodies.

    According to TT, doctors in Lund are warning that the city's intensive care wards for children are already full.

    "We are seeing that children who have had Covid-19 are being hit by this inflammatory syndrome, MIS-C, about three to six weeks after going through the infection," said Maria Mossberg, the head of Lund's children's clinic.

    Swedish researchers call for schools to stay closed

    A group of dissident university professors, doctors and researchers, has called for Sweden to keep schools closed for between two to four weeks at the start of the spring term in order to reduce the spread of coronavirus.

    In a debate article published in the Dagens Nyheter newspaper, the 30 researchers said the Public Health Agency was wrong to claim that children were not significant spreaders of coronavirus.

    "The mantra which the Public Health Agency has had is that children do not transmit, do not get infected and do not spread the infection is just not correct and there's a big spread of the virus in schools," Anders Vahlne, Professor Emiritus in Clinical Virology at Stockholm's Karolinska institutet.

    "We just within firing range of getting the vaccine, and to then not do what we can to prevent more people getting infected, get seriously ill and die is totally crazy."

    They batch multiple days of data together...
    many times you have told us Sweden does not report everyday... so claiming the average is 200 is giant lie... you lying douchebag.


    here is a quote from your article...

    "The country registered 277 new deaths, taking the total to 9,262. The deaths registered have typically occurred over several days and sometimes weeks.

    The report on Thursday is for deaths registered in the previous 24 hours. The number of registered deaths is 277. They will be allocated by date-of-death over the next few weeks by the Swedish government.

    How all of this works has been carefully explained to you multiple times. Maybe you need to understand the facts and stop being insane.

    Let's get to the points again - Sweden has abandoned its "herd immunity" strategy with the Prime Minister stating is was a complete failure. The country is instituting restrictions and lockdowns to deal with COVID. The era of "no lockdowns", "only lockdown the at-risk" and the "Great Barrington Declaration" is over. All of these failed ideas which cost many lives have been buried in the dustbin of history.

    your preferred data provide calls bullshit on that statement.
    it shows a few days in a row of zero deaths and then a big spike.


    Show us where you are seeing 277 deaths for a 24 hour period.

    It's because you are looking at days over the holiday break when no data was reported from Sweden. Data was reported yesterday (Wednesday) and the data reported today (Thursday) represents a 24 hour period since the registered deaths report from yesterday (Wednesday).
