Sweden and the Surging Wuflu By Brian Simpson

     Sweden has been a test case for those of us who believe that Covid-19, is not a regular flu, but is still no Black Death. Sweden had minimal isolations and social distancing. It is the model of what many conservatives think should have happened:

“It seems that optimistic reports about China having the coronavirus completely under control and Sweden avoiding infections without resorting to lockdowns are both premature. In news that broke today, China has just placed a city of 11 million people under lockdown as an asymptomatic carrier of the coronavirus managed to infect 70 other people even after she spent 14 days in quarantine and showed no symptoms. The city is Harbin, and the carrier is a 22-year-old student who returned to China from New York, according to The Daily Star UK. She inadvertently infected dozens of people at a gathering, and one of those people ended up in the hospital, ultimately causing an outbreak that spread across two different hospitals in the region. “The city has implemented a strict lockdown, with gates to all communities and villages remaining guarded,” reports The Daily Star. “Citizens have been asked to wear face masks when stepping out of villages, as well as have their temperatures checked. Public events have been cancelled and gatherings have been banned.” So much for the theory that the coronavirus is easy to control.

Deaths in Sweden surge past the USA, per capita
Sweden, the nation typically cited by pandemic denialists who claim lockdowns aren’t necessary, is now seeing deaths surge far beyond the per capita death rate in the United States. As of today, Sweden has now confirmed 192 deaths per million residents, far beyond the 144 per million recorded in the United States, or the 174 per million in Switzerland. Amazingly, pandemic denialists across America are still citing Sweden as a “success story,” claiming its outstanding handling of the outbreak proves that lockdowns aren’t necessary. But that narrative fell apart over the last 7 days as Sweden’s deaths skyrocketed. Most U.S. states are nowhere near Sweden’s per capita death rate, meaning that if lockdowns are ended prematurely, deaths have a tremendous amount of room to explode across the population in various U.S. states. Texas, for example, has so far only experienced 20 deaths per million residents. California is currently at 37. Georgia, where the governor wants to end the lockdowns and re-open gyms and fitness centers, so far only has 82 deaths per million. If the lockdowns are ended without proper precautions, all these states will see deaths surge past Sweden as they head toward New York numbers, where over 1,000 deaths per million people have already been recorded. That’s the other lesson in all this: Even with all the deaths in New York (around 700 – 800 per day lately), so far only 1 in 1,000 New Yorkers have been killed by the virus. Covid-19 is just getting started. It has barely begun to penetrate the population at large, especially in states like California which initiated early lockdowns that avoided the New York scenario (NY was ahead of California by around two weeks in terms of infection penetration). Those who are calling for an ending of the lockdowns but who refuse to wear masks or take other precautions are begging for a death wish.”

     In the interest of balanced reporting, and also when this is over, for no fingers to point at the League and say: you denialists are responsible, I report such items, as well as the alternative view.
