Is softly, softly Sweden heading for catastrophe?

Is softly, softly Sweden heading for catastrophe? Alone in Europe, its schools, bars and restaurants are open as usual. But now deaths are set to soar - and ministers are facing fury


People sit in close proximity at an outdoor restaurant in central Stockholm last Thursday, well after most of Sweden's neighbours had imposed drastic lockdowns

PAUL CONNOLLY: Swedes really don't like to stand out. They much prefer to blend in. They even have their own word for it: 'Jantelagen', the Scandinavian answer to Australia and New Zealand's 'tall poppy syndrome'. It roughly translates as: 'Don't think you're better than anyone else.' And so it's quite understandable that its government's maverick response to the coronavirus crisis is making many in the country feel uneasy.

After all, Sweden is the last major European country to have most of its schools, bars and restaurants still open. Yes, the government has asked people to work from home if possible, and those over 70 have been instructed to stay indoors, while visits to elderly care homes have been banned. But there have been no official lockdown directives - even though there have been more than 4,000 cases of infection and 180 deaths.

Sweden's current rate of infection is already relatively high. If you look at the number of reported cases per 100,000 of the Swedish population (39.6), it's greater than the UK's (33.8). And so the Swedish government's strategy doesn't sit well with many citizens.

1/3 of all of those who have died in Stockholm from corona are Somalis.

Stockholm's corona outbreak is apparently purging the local Somali community in real-time, so it's a coin toss as to whether corona will kill or save Sweden.

Afterwards, it could be very interesting to see .... will there be differencies between ethnics.
How people will behave (as they are not directly forced to do something by nation).

Nah, they won't publish anything like that as it would be too racists.

"Unfortunately, extreme mitigation efforts which end (even gradually) reduce the number of deaths only by 1% or so; as the mitigation efforts let up, we still see a full-scale epidemic, since almost none of the population has developed immunity to the virus," writes Wesley Pegden, Associate Professor, Department of Mathematical Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University. "There is a simple truth behind the problems with these modeling conclusions. The duration of containment efforts does not matter, if transmission rates return to normal when they end, and mortality rates have not improved. This is simply because as long as a large majority of the population remains uninfected, lifting containment measures will lead to an epidemic almost as large as would happen without having mitigations in place at all."

"This is not to say that there are not good reasons to use mitigations as a delay tactic," Pegden adds. "For example, we may hope to use the months we buy with containment measures to improve hospital capacity, in the hopes of achieving a reduction in the mortality rate. We might even wish to use these months just to consider our options as a society and formulate a strategy."

"But mitigations themselves are not saving lives in these scenarios; instead, it is what we do with the time that gives us an opportunity to improve the outcome of the epidemic."

Meanwhile, Somalia sends 20 doctors to help Italy fight the coronavirus lel.

Virus has just arrived to Africa. Just wait what it will/can do there. Think about that.

Ready?

Ok, now ask yourself who will pay their treaments?

Would there be race wars happen between Swedes and migrants, refugees? Would a Civil War happen?

Unfortunately this make sense. We can hope that containment gives more time to improve medical infrastructures and do develop a vaccine, but it cannot stop the spreading by itself. We can however hope that the virus will 'retreat' with the warm season, bc some viruses have an envelop that degrades with warm weather, but as far as I know we don't know yet if this is true for covid-19. Another problem is that the acquired immunity doesn't seem to last long, so people can get reinfected. The only real hope in the long run seems to be a vaccine.

[oh-nahhh]

OMG, people sitting close to each other???? That's horrible. We can't have that.

Some feminist cunt in Finland might do it lel.
