Maybe they don't need no stinking lock down?

If it is like other similar stores they have one enterance/exit set of doors open with the sets on the other side closed. So it is one double door in and one double door out. That way they can count customers coming and going and let new ones in when others leave when they hit the max allowed.

I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that Sweden is purposely trying to make more room for immigrants by getting rid of elderly Swedes.

Doesn’t matter. Are the deaths up? No. Not compared to the United States. They will survive this due to being smart. The United States will fall hard in deaths an economic ruin.

Finland has half the population of Sweden.

Stockholm, 1.5 million, has less cases than Cleveland, Denver, New Orleans or Indianapolis.

If that was goal, it's not working. The Italian approach seems to be the most effective at killing the elderly.

Perhaps the best metric of all is simply watching the number of posts on the FR daily CV thread.

As the reality of a non-extinction event unfolds, interest is dropping faster than the number of daily infections.

Went to BestBuy yesterday. Got out of my car to go into the store. Sales guys came out and “asked me” to get into my car. Said they would take my order (with pen and paper), fetch what I wanted, and call the cell phone number I provided and bring it out to me. I left.

This is insane! Is this the Bubonic plague? Are we dealing with a deadly nerve agent? People are losing their minds.

Publix had a bouncer at the door making sure nobody was going in the store and out of the store at the same tome...

"...They will let 991 people in the store..."

I believe their policy is one customer per 1000 square feet in each store. The number allowed in depends on the store size.

I shop at our local Walmart and the staff are very friendly and working like crazy keeping the place stocked. I always thank them for their service. They are doing a great job.

The virus deaths won’t be the problem. It’s the economic and societal ruin that will be the problem.

The Nordic countries...which have been less hysterical...may end up as masters of the universe! This is because they haven’t terrorized their populations and destroyed their economies.

“Sweden has twice the population of what?”

Don’t ask silly questions. They have more than 4 times the populations of some.

Hearing a lot of talkback nutbags say ‘We don’t need this lockdown - look at Sweden - they’re doing it right.’

Australia.
Population: 25 mil.
Deaths: 34.

Sweden.
Population: 10 mil.
Deaths: 373.

Good one, nutbags!
