    Basically Lacey will do everything he can to try and get you to skip past/ignore the deaths as he has no empathy, they are a statistic and the same/far worse happening in the US due to cultural difference and more would just free up real estate.

    Also when it became clear black people were more vulnerable it all became meh, have to break a few eggs with Trumpers.

    Bullshit, 1. you are a monster, deformed in your mind. 2. Nothing changes the thousands who died unnecessarily.

    Remember, I'm part Danish. I have a good idea from family how Sweden is viewed by its peers.

    A monster! Ooooooooh.
    How about the thousands who didn’t die in the flu season prior? You know, the ones who died in the following year because the average age of a person who died with covid was 80?
    Part Danish? I’d say you are part Cruller...
    Stay dumb. Don’t learn.

    Again, lacking a soul you see it as about x years. All our lives are just the snap of a finger, the things that matter are things you are incapable of seeing.

    we're now in the stage where this is getting so obvious that we need new hobgoblins like "resistance is not durable"

    this is just a scare story.

    it is.

    and counter to reports of "re-infection" it's simply not happening.[​IMG]
    the only dangerous second infection is "hysterical anecdotitis".

    testing positive on a PCR at high Ct with no symptoms is not "infection".

    99.99%, it's just a very sensitive assay picking up clinically irrelevant virus.[​IMG]
    nor are young, healthy people getting permanent symptoms from mild or asymptomatic cases.

    not heart, not lungs, not organs.

    this is just the winner of the scary campfire story contest that pooper out of the twitter fear amplifier.

    it has zero basis in fact.
    simple truth: sweden did it right, most of the world did it wrong. herd immunity works, lockdowns & masks don't

    that was & remains the science

    remember the kid that did his book report early and well and was outside playing while you had to do yours?

    sweden is that kid.[​IMG]

    Sweden plans lockdown in capital as cases rise...

    Sweden says Stockholm measures possible as COVID cases rise
    https://news.yahoo.com/sweden-says-stockholm-measures-possible-131658321.html

    Sweden, which so far has decided against lockdowns as a means to contain COVID-19, is seeing early signs that the number of coronavirus cases are rising again and could impose new measures in the capital, its chief health officials said on Tuesday.

    Sweden's strategy emphasising personal responsibility rather than major lockdowns to slow the virus drew fierce criticism as deaths shot up during the spring, but has also been lauded by WHO officials as a sustainable model.

    Infections dropped significantly in the summer and so far Sweden had been spared the type of sharp increases in new cases seen in Spain, France and Britain in the past month.

    However, around 1,200 new cases and five deaths have been reported since Friday compared to around 200 cases per day in the last weeks. The increase in new cases cannot solely be explained by increased testing, the Public Health Agency said on Tuesday.

    "The rolling average has increased somewhat," Anders Tegnell, Sweden's chief epidemiologist who devised its pandemic strategy, told a news conference.

    "It hasn't affected the healthcare - yet. The number of new cases at ICU is very low and the number of deaths are very low," he said.

    Tegnell said that new measures for the capital could not be ruled out. "We have a discussion with Stockholm about whether we need to introduce measures to reduce the spread of infection. Exactly what that will be, we will come back to in the next few days," he said.

    Earlier on Tuesday Stockholm's top health official warned that the region saw an increase in cases.

    "The downwards trend is broken," Stockholm Director of Health and Medical Services Bjorn Eriksson told a news conference. "We can only hope that this is a blip, that the spread start decreasing again. That depends on how well we follow the guidelines," he said.

    Sweden has reported 5,870 deaths since the start of the pandemic, many more per capita than its Nordic neighbours but also lower than countries like Spain and Italy that opted for hard lockdowns.

    You're just making shit up now. A little desperate?

    No where in that article does it mention any plan for lockdown. It doesn't even say the word "lockdown" outside of how it has resisted that in the past.

    You expect us to believe they didn't lock down during the height of the pandemic, but suddenly now, based on a "blip" (they're word, not mine) they're going to lock everything down?

    What a fruitcake you are.

    Of course there has been no rise in cases in Sweden as of yet and this is yet another stab at knocking down Sweden in order to encourage our governors to seize more power.---Stop posting garbage---
