Sweden's resistance to lockdown raises questions about our own tough approach

I hope that works for them. From the picture in the article, it looks like they are all wearing masks. Not an option here, as there is currently a shortage.

And from the article it seems like they are still expecting their hospitals to be overwhelmed. So they are making a conscious choice in favor of the economy over their people.

But the "everyone wears a mask" strategy is a viable option. I think it would work for us, once mask manufacturing has caught up.

Sweden did it exactly right and their economy (and well-being of their citizens) will benefit from it.

When we see +20% unemployment you'll understand what real pain really is. Trump has already alluded to it when he said that the cure is worse that the disease. He was 100% right but unfortunately the left got exactly what it wanted...the US economy on lockdown.
