It's getting harder and harder for the shutdown Nazis to justify continuing this farce:

Sweden did not have a lockdown. Experts predicted that it would have 40,000 COVID-19 deaths by May 1. The actual number was 2,769.​

I never heard someone said Sweden will have 40,000 deaths. And Sweden fights against Corona and is not doing nothing! The # 2769 is a disaster on its own. Compared with the USA this would be 33*2769=91,377! Norway is much more easy comparable with Sweden than any other country in the world. The relation is 7:1. It die relatively 7 times more people in Sweden than die in Norway. Another comparable country is Denmark: It die relatively 3 times more people in Sweden than die in Denmark.

As COVID-19 may be on a slow, downward trend in the hotspots of New York City, New Orleans, and Detroit, the virus appears to be finding new ground elsewhere: in rural America.

Data compiled by the Kaiser Family Foundation suggests that infection rates are increasing at higher rates in rural areas than in urban settings.

It’s a significant, if not unsurprising trend: the disease is fanning out from big, urban areas like New York City to more sparsely populated parts of the country.

The Trump administration anticipates that more than 3,000 Americans will be dying each day of COVID-19 by June 1, according to a newly revealed internal government document obtained by the New York Times.

The Times obtained an internal Centers for Disease Control document providing detailed projections on the progression of the COVID-19 pandemic around the country. The data goes up to May 2.

The document says that new cases will grow to a rate of around 225,000 per day by June 1, and that deaths will reach around 3,000 per day by the same date.

Just the facts, dude.

Lol, those experts you have been listening to has been wrong everytime.

Danfromsquirrelhill again? He kind of lost the last go around.

Every country that borders Sweden has a lower death rate and Finland is already looking at opening back up while Sweden has undertested compared to all of it's neighbors.

He simply quoted an article from the Daily Telegraph.

That still makes him wrong.

No it doesn't, turd. Have you ever heard of the logical fallacy known as "ad hominem?"

Yeah, I have. He's still wrong. Sweden has the largest number of deaths per capita then any of its neighbors.

They all have higher death rates than Sweden.

Sweden's coronavirus death rate is nearly 6 times that of neighboring Norway and Finland. Here's a look at how the countries have approached the coronavirus pandemic differently.

While Norway and Finland have been under lockdown since March, Sweden has imposed relatively few restrictive measures to contain the coronavirus.

It's lower than the death rate of Spain, Italy, UK, Netherlands, France, Ireland and Belgium, and Sweden didn't destroy its economy.

Sweden did not have a lockdown.​

​

Experts predicted that it would have 40,000 COVID-19 deaths by May 1.​

​

The actual number was 2,769.​

​

The Telegraph just reported:​

​

How Sweden suppressed infection rates without a lockdown​

​

Denmark locked down hard and early, shutting schools, borders, cafés, restaurants and shops. Sweden has taken a light-touch approach, shutting none of these things, and instead relying on the public’s “common sense behaviour”.​

​

If the R number is 1, it means that each person infected goes on to infect an average of one other person during the course of their illness. So long as a country keeps R below one, the number of infections will steadily decrease until the pandemic comes to an end.​

​

The Public Health Institute of Sweden estimated that Sweden’s R number has fallen from 1.4 at the start of April to 0.85 at the end of April.​

​

Denmark’s SSI infectious diseases agency, meanwhile, estimated that Denmark’s had fallen from about 1 at the start of April to about 0.9 at the end of April.​

​

Sweden’s numbers are a standing rebuke to the Imperial College study that has done so much to influence UK policy. Researchers at the university predicted that Sweden’s approach would leave it with an R of above 3, leading to 40,000 coronavirus deaths by May 1. Sweden’s current death tally is just 2,769.​

​

Uno Wennergren, a mathematician and pandemic modeller at Linköping University, suspects Sweden’s low number in part comes from growing levels of immunity in Stockholm, where the outbreak has so far been concentrated, and in part from social distancing.​

​

“It looks like its a combination of herd immunity effect and lower infectability. Both seem to be acting simultaneously,” he said.​

​

Sweden’s state epidemiologist Anders Tegnell now estimates that as many as a quarter of people in Stockholm might already be immune. The capital might have herd immunity within weeks, he argues.​

​

NO surprise here.

No, idiot. Belgium the Netherlands, France and the UK are not it's neighbors. The Nordic countries have been hit quite differently than much of Western Europe. They've for the most part haven't been a hotspot so Sweden has an advantage over say Belgium. Look at Sweden's direct neighbors. Finland, Norway and Denmark. All of them are in a better place than Sweden. They test more, they have fewer cases per capita as well as fewer deaths per capita.

Considering the lack of economic losses and the way denmark is opening up without a vaccine. Kids going back to school there

I'm gonna callll bulllllshit

Sweden is just much more open generally than the other two nations.

Danes are militant about assimliation from immigrants. Swedes just let em do whatever. Fins are more closed than both by a mile.

Biggest difference here is there was an appointed doctor comfortable with death who lead the policy. Instead of just an executive who is beholden to the media and public opinion.

And why do you laugh now? Could be interesting to understand what US-Americans call "humor".

 

[Canon Shooter]

And here's something to consider:

100,000 Americans died during the Hong Kong flu in 1968 to 1969. Nothing was shut down, and there were 500,000 people at Woodstock.

Hard to argue with how Sweden handled this...

First, we're talking per capita. Second the vast difference in deaths between Norway and Sweden cannot be explained away in population density. If you want to find a source that makes this claim then now would be the time.

And the other nordic countries are moving towards their strategy not the other way around?


Schools back open in Denmark....? lol

Using that logic we are all following Sweden's model because eventually we will be opening up our schools. In the meantime Denmark has done something that Sweden hasn't quite yet managed to do. Flatten the curve. Sweden may be at the apex but Denmark has been steady for much longer. Guess what? Fewer people died in the process per capita and as long as they don't see any setbacks they will be ahead of Sweden.

Sort of undercuts your point eh?

Maybe if you don't put any thought into your argument which you were obviously successful at.

Yea cosmopolitan doesn't imply high population? What the fuck?

Google it

Lot more people going in and out of sweden than the other nordic countries

THey have more immigrants who don't listen to their PSAs. That's all.

In denmark if you don't learn the language they'll boot your ass out. Norway is extremely tiny and extremely rich

 

[HappyJoy]

Sweden's population is less dense than Denmark. Fix your post.

But if you want to blame immigration then you're going to have to find the countries their immigrants come from and demonstrate a high level of COVID.

 

[Juicin]

Sweden's population is less dense than Denmark. Fix your post.

cosmopolitan means of many nations/cultures

as in they have immigrants and tourists

there is no implication of population density

edit - and they're 90% urban so i don't know how much more urbanized u can get beyond a city state.
