Tell us more :rolleyes:

BTW, ADDvanced you cheapen the name Liberal - which has it's roots in Liberty. Clearly you have an aversion to people living their lives freely. Statist sounds more fitting for you -

Maybe. I despise labels, to be honest.


Anyway, have fun, I'm bailing on this topic as data has shown that Sweden's approach is obviously retarded.

I'm still not sure why we aren't following the Madagascar Plan. Easily one of the best plans going.

Because that Lemur is a Commi!

The "hard cold facts on the matter" only include comparative data from the Netherlands, US, and Canada? :confused:

From waaay back on page 20 (and it's interactive/updated in real-time, BTW):

I only included countries in which I reside + Sweden...and that website only allows 4 choices anyway.

Well that settles it then! :p :D

Seriously, Sweden is definitely not the lowest in deaths per capita, but it is not the highest, and those countries that have higher counts have had much more strict shelter-in-place/lock-down rules.

Also, Sweden has a MUCH larger population, infrastructure, and travel/commerce/trade volume than the other Nordic countries everyone is comparing it to.
IOW, a LOT more people were moving about in and out of Sweden than the others in late 2019/early 2020 when the impact (or existence) of C19 was not yet known.

Denmark 5.8M
Sweden - 10.3M
Norway - 5.3M
Iceland - 0.4M
Finland - 5.5M
Netherlands - 17.4M
New York State - 19.1M

...yes there are some tiny ones, with Sweden the biggest....

Just the facts...

If your argument is sound, personal insults and political commentary shouldn't be needed.
Keep it clean please.

I thought it might be the 50% increase in Madagascar's death rate.

Not to be a jerk, but isn't that a 100% increase?SmileWavy

YES! Good lord I shouldn't post before coffee is ready.

Sweden's overall mortality rate is 396/million - which is 4-7x their neighbors: Denmark 97/million, Norway 43/million, Finland 55/million. Who, even as they discuss opening their borders to each other, don't want to include Sweden. Because, while their new case #'s are dropping, they're also much lower (all < 100 per day, most 20-40/day), while Sweden's are holding steady somewhere around 650 new cases/day.

From the same article as above

Seems to be behaving differently everywhere (one article I read said they may be on the verge of identifying 5-6 groups of people who'll have different symptoms/reactions to the virus).

But https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/coronavirus-brazil-killing-young-developing-world/2020/05/22/f76d83e8-99e9-11ea-ad79-eef7cd734641_story.html

While in Africa, the mortality/infection rate appears low:

I like how I posted this a bit ago and people looked at the data and concluded the exact opposite. People are so dumb.

Following hunches, testing positive toward negative, it's gonna disappear, mmmm Plaquenil...wtf?

Has it?

Compare Switzerland to neighboring Austria. Is Switzerland's approach also obviously retarded? And a follow up Q; how is Switzerland's approach so different than Austria's? Or is it? Or is it that some countries get hit much harder than neighboring counties REGARDLESS of approach to handling this" ?

San Marino has the most deaths per million. In fact it is over TWICE the death % than neighboring Italy, and 3x more than Sweden's. Is it because their (San Marino) approach is obviously retarded?

Canada's deaths per million is nearly HALF that of neighboring US. Is it because our (US) approach is obviously retarded?


You also say " People are so dumb." Do you mean the people who ignore the bigger picture because they want the non-group-think country to look worse than it is? Those people? :rolleyes:
