Let me tell this story with data. Sweden has recorded 2,941 deaths:
- 2,576 deaths (87%) are 70+ people who were in lockdown at nursing homes.
- Only 19 deaths (0.64%) were under the age of 40.
"Lockdown" supremacists are actually destroying innovative thought in fighting COVID https://twitter.com/DianaUrge/status/1258155388823887872
After duly blaming China, I think the world dropped the ball on COVID-19. It's such a cowardly disease & weak in comparison to its peers. From ventilator craze to lockdowns. All we had to do was to accelerate testing, isolate at risk persons, & establish treatment protocol.
My own hypothesis is this, the countries that distrusted China (and reacted early) had the best outcomes.
- Taiwan warned WHO
- South Korea had experience with China from MERS
- Vietnam hacked China to find out what's going on there re: COVID-19

Updating this thread with the not-so-surprising news of Wuhan's 2nd wave. The signs are clear that this will happen everywhere. Another round of lockdowns or more innovative thinking? History will be kind to Sweden. Strategic herd immunity and care >>> https://twitter.com/NorbertElekes/status/1259735923287306240?s=19
