If this post by GWB (from another thread - see below) is accurate... its looking more and more like the shutdown was useless (once the hospitals had capacity) and that the Swedish strategy is the right approach once you have isolated the high risk people like those in nursing homes.
You are delusional. Why don't you take a look at a nation that totally eliminated COVID-19 such as New Zealand to understand the correct method of eliminating COVID-19 in a short period of time with a lock-down and minimal economic impact compared to other nations.
Sweden Remains Far From Herd Immunity Despite Softer Lockdown https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...ar-from-herd-immunity-despite-softer-lockdown Only a fraction of Sweden’s population has developed Covid-19 antibodies despite a significant number of infections across the country. Antibodies were found in 6.1% of the samples collected nationwide in the week ending May 24, according to a survey presented by the Public Health Agency on Thursday. The number confirms earlier studiesthat suggested Sweden is far from reaching the level of immunity that could bring the spread of the virus to a halt. (More at above url)
Cities in Sweden have had enough of the federal government's absurd strategy and are now imposing lock-downs. "Uncontrolled outbreak" says city in northern Sweden and imposes lockdown Gällivare is now as bad as Stockholm in regards to COVID-19 infections. https://thebarentsobserver.com/en/l...ys-city-northern-swedish-and-imposes-lockdown

Sweden’s top epidemiologist at a loss to explain why herd immunity is going ‘surprisingly slow’ https://fortune.com/2020/06/17/sweden-herd-immunity-surprisingly-slow/
Cases are spiking everywhere according to you. We can't hide from the virus... This is the stat that matters. (as long as we have the hospital capacity.)
Go look up the facts. 40% of those infected do not develop anti-bodies. The immunity to COVID-19 appears to only last for 2 to 3 months for those who do develop anti-bodies. "Natural Herd Immunity" is a farce. A vaccine is needed to develop any type of herd immunity to COVID-19.
