That herd immunity is gonna kick in any day now, just you wait!
there's been an update:
"Striving for herd immunity is neither ethical nor otherwise justifiable," Dr Tegnell told German paper Die Zeit.
They're rising it seems to me. Is that correct?
Right, they've got uncontrolled exponential spread again. You see now that they didn't figure out some secret to low spread while keeping the economy open? And I'll go out on a limb here and predict that France will be able to get control of its epidemic faster with a lockdown while Sweden will suffer a much worse impact. Willing to revisit this in six weeks.
I never said they did figure anything out. Again, as I mentioned previously, nothing I wrote was an opinion. Everything was simply what had been reported. Funny thing is, I also posted about the rise in casss reported in the news, which I know you saw because you responded to it.
Interesting thing though is you're making definitive statements on this. I would say it is more complicated than that. Why not, for instance, compare Belgium with Sweden, or my own country with Sweden in 6 weeks? Both have gone into lockdown.
Edit: I will mention as well actually... Sweden's strategy was dubbed the 'herd immunity' strategy, but it was never claimed to be that by the Swedish government. Herd immunity simply being a side-effect of the strategy, one that they believed to be beneficial. The reason for the strategy was to have a long-term sustainable strategy
