No surprise. Just because 1 or 2 tested positive by no stretch means the entire country is gonna be infected. Or even 1 or 2 others are gonna be. When is this Panic Culture madness gonna end??? 

I would panic if I'm in Thailand for sure. There's basically no information with regards to the number of test done so far in the entire country. You can't find more positive cases if you don't test. If they are confident that the current reported numbers are true, they would have open the country by now.

It does not matter what the government does. A country like New Zealand is going to have to open up and expose itself at some point. There will probably be no long term success stories. It is all going to average out. Once again, this is like trying to use government policy to curtail the effects of a tsunami. 

 

You can't stop it. You can do sensible things like protecting the vulnerable. You simply cannot stop it though. I am not sure why a drunk 18 year old getting stoned in his basement can figure this out, and the rest of the world can't.

 

Sweden seems to have figured it out however. Why is nobody talking about Sweden and their 1 death per day? Too painful to talk about a country who did not lock down and had very little regulation as beating the virus?

there must still be a real worry Flip and Flop ( the PM and mate health)are still keeping distance from the normal people if Flop had not tried to impress a little lady with his good looks the other day, you could forget they are around

"[T]he death toll from Sweden's outbreak is now the fifth-worst in the world, per capita. The country's mortality rate from the coronavirus is now 30% higher than that of the United States when adjusted for population size."
