There is a great graph on the Watts Up With That Corona page that plots per-capita deaths time-aligned to when they first reached 10 per million. Sweden is one of the better countries. Not sure Trump should have criticized them. He’s getting real bad advice.
We’ve been played.

The lockdown is a classic case of boiling the frog. At first it’s we need one month to ramp up hospital facilities. Then the lockdown gets extended and the rationale shifted. Then it gets extended again. Occasionally someone blurts out we might need to lockdown until we have a “vaccine.” And we know scientists say that could take over a year. If this was sold as a one-year-lockdown upfront few would have accepted that as a national strategy. We most certainly are getting played. Not saying it’s a conspiracy outright, but the combination of panic combined with living in “CYA” lawyer-land where everyone is afraid of “one more death” leading to them being ruined by lawsuits or smeared by the media is proving to be toxic to our national policy.
