They respect freedom more than some of our mayors and governors.

The 64 thousand Kroner question is do they respect their freedom enough to die for it?

They’re probably trying to kill off the elderly natives to leave more room for migrants.

Actually, it’s working out very well, which is why the globalists are having this stupid rant published.

Sweden probably will not cave and that puts them in a situation to economically dominate Europe for the next several years.

Sweden Population - 10.3 million

New Jersey Population - 8.9 million

Sweden COVID-19 Fatalities - 401

New Jersey COVID-19 Fatalities - 917

Since 90% of Sweden’s land is not inhabited, their “adjusted” population density is probably almost equal to New Jersey.

For example...

Stockholm Population Density - 13,000 per square mile

Newark Population Density - 11,500 per square mile

If you go for herd immunity, you have to skip the ventilators and let the critical cases die. Give them enough morphine that they don’t notice drowning in their own pink frothy lung fluids. 2/3 of ventilator cases end up dying anyway, often after weeks on the machine in a medically induced coma.

In the first world, we have the luxury of making that decision. In the 3rd world, the decision is made for them by lack of medical infrastructure.

See: Guayaquil, Ecuador, “The Gateway to the Pacific Rim.”

If you’re an elderly or high-risk person who doesn’t want to end up on a vent, stay home. If you choose not to, it’s not a failure of the government, it’s your own decision and your own failure.

For those under 45, the disease has roughly the same or lower death rate as the flu. Only tin foil hat wearers would stay home to avoid that minimal a risk to life. They could never get in a car or have sexual relations with another human being if they were that risk-averse. The government has no business forcing people to avoid risks that a reasonable person would readily accept as the price of freedom.

The death rate is currently a bit higher than the flu for those 45-64. But if that’s adjusted for asymptomatic and untested cases as flu statistics are and as some articles have tried to do for coronavirus, the death rate for that age group could also come down to flu risk levels.

“...herd immunity has never been seen with a coronavirus...”

Is this really so? Would you please elaborate.

“Is this really so? Would you please elaborate.”

You’ll know there’s herd immunity when a country says that it’s now ok to go back to the ‘old normal’ - meaning no need for masks, temperature checking, social distancing, etc. Since their population is no longer at risk for Coronavirus.

I don’t know of any country that has gone back to the ‘old normal’, do you?

The Swedes lost their collective mind years ago.

If it works out OK, you'll not see any mention of it in our chinese owned media. The bedwetters will all try to just wave it away as an outlier.
