The ‘press badgering the Government’ is what made Johnson ditch his failed here immunity experiment.

 

The ‘press badgering the Government’ is what caused the Government to revise it’s reporting of deaths to include deaths in the community.

 

The ‘press badgering the Government’ is what has made the public aware of the Government’s failings.

I assume (?) you are not in the UK watching the daily press debacle.

Nature didn't make anyone that way. Sweden is now No.10 in the mortality rate table.

 

In Sweden currently, as of today, 0.02021 of Sweden's population died of Covid19.

 

Sweden was right not to lockdown its economy, given this miniscule figure, don't you think?

 

Of course this very tiny figure will go up a little, but the coronapocalypse will not happen in Sweden.

 

Sweden had the courage to walk the path which Britain shied away from. And their courage has not resulted in vastly more deaths than in lockdown central, the UK.

"Speaking Radio Four's Today programme on Friday, chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance said: "Our aim is to try and reduce the peak, broaden the peak, not suppress it completely; also, because the vast majority of people get a mild illness, to build up some kind of herd immunity so more people are immune to this disease and we reduce the transmission."

It’s not the ‘Press Debacle’ that is leaving Doctors, Nurses and health professionals short of the PPE and medical equipment they need to do their job.

Sweden has a vastly better prepared health care system than does the UK. So the fact that there are about as many deaths on a per capita basis as in the UK doesn't tell the whole story.

Boris think he joker.

How many more people have corona because Boris want to shake everyone hand in corona hospital that day. And after that day, he shake hand how many people? Spread more people.

The very fact that he and the Nasty Party are in power is clear evidence that there is a significant minority of people in the UK who's judgement is very bad and who's opinions should be given no credence whatsoever.

All nice, but that doesn't mean he shouldn't be held accountable, that's what parliament is for.

There is also something very wrong with Sweden’s reporting of infections.

 

Their reported death rate is way too high for their reported infections.

It turns out that Sweden only classifies a case as "corona viras caused" if the patient is actually tested for it. That's why the numbers look so skewed.

Report is from 19th March. Wonder what the figures might read now some 6 weeks later; 20,000 dead, 140,000 infected  and testing no where near 100,000 a day....................I bet you his approval rating has increased.........that is how unbelievably stupid your average voter is in the UK (or more accurately, England)
