There are hospitals in Bangkok at 140% capacity, which means that ICU nurses are understaffed. What's your point? Are you here to show off your ignorance?

The Middle Age solution to a modern day pandemic We have 18 months of data and experience showing it didn't do anything significant to stop hospitals from reaching capacity. We have to accept that we lost from day 1, and just not fall into "knee jerk" reaction of fears and security with silly lockdowns 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a little bit more complex than just making silly declarations by authorities. they had a slight bigger rate of deaths per capita, but it's a small country, and they never add an ICUs crisis like we had. It's a pandemic, there will be casualties. The ignorance is to think we can "manage" it. Obviously nobody did. We lost that battle on day 1. funny how annual deaths from the flu doesn't bring the same issue, no lockdowns, higher death rate etc... by the same usual suspects supporting total lockdowns Edited July 31, 2021 by GrandPapillon 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Leaver Posted July 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 31, 2021 16 hours ago, GrandPapillon said: well, I guess we have a different opinion on what "works" mean ???? we didn't save millions, we just spread the number of deaths on a different time scale so we didn't look completely foolish in front of the virus, basically saving face ???? Wrong. You track and trace infected people, and their contacts, and you quarantine them. The virus either kills the person, or the person kills the virus. Either way, the virus living in the host / person dies. If you allow the virus to spread freely, it kills more, but also has a greater chance of mutating, possibly into something more nasty, as we are now seeing with the Delta variant. Quarantine works. It's as simple as that. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Do you enjoy making up your own facts to support your dream world? lockdown reduce surges in infections, flattening the curve so that hospitals are not overwhelmed by new admissions. This is standard policy in most of the world, and demonstrated to work in many places. The heavier the restrictions, the fewer the new admissions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early-onset lockdown with gradual deconfinement allowed shortening the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic and reducing contaminations. Lockdown should be considered as an effective public health intervention to halt epidemic progression. Association of tiered restrictions and a second lockdown with COVID-19 deaths and hospital admissions in England: a modelling study. These studies from NIH and the Lancet say you are wrong. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerryd Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 For the record. Sweden is currently 29th in the world (out of over 100 countries) in number of infections and 39th in the number of deaths. And no, it wasn't "just a comment" by a member of Sweden's Royal family. From June of last year:"Coronavirus: Sweden's Tegnell admits too many died Sweden's controversial decision not to impose a strict lockdown in response to the Covid-19 pandemic led to too many deaths, the man behind the policy, Anders Tegnell, has acknowledged. Sweden has seen a far higher mortality rate than its nearest neighbours and its nationals are being barred from crossing their borders. Dr Tegnell told Swedish radio more should have been done early on. "There is quite obviously a potential for improvement in what we have done." Sweden has counted 4,542 deaths and 40,803 infections in a population of 10 million, while Denmark, Norway and Finland have imposed lockdowns and seen far lower rates. Denmark has seen 580 deaths, Norway has had 237 deaths and Finland 321. Sweden reported a further 74 deaths on Wednesday." (My bolding and underlining.) From January of this year: "Swedish Prime Minister Admits Strategy to Stop Virus Fell Short Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven said his government should have taken more aggressive steps and moved more quickly to stop the spread of the pandemic, and he takes full responsibility for the initial strategy that led the country to suffer a disproportionately high number of deaths." "Sweden began stepping up its response to the virus only recently, after deaths, particularly among older people, rose to per-capita levels that are more than three times those of its closest regional peer, Denmark." (My bolding and underlining.) Funny how Demark, Norway and Finland enforced things like lock downs and masks and their numbers are significantly lower than Sweden's. Also note that early on in the pandemic, Sweden only tested people "with the most severe symptoms" meaning many more people were infected than the numbers indicate. Which is also why, back then, all of Sweden's neighbours blocked their borders with Sweden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People spread covid, as you well know, presumably stupid, unthinking, uncaring people spread it more readily. Is it ? why is it ok to spread this virus in markets, restaurants, shops, which most have no distancing, yet it is unsafe to sit in a bar or the same restaurant, with a beer ? Yup Thai people spread it don't they, with the help of the government , telling infected people to travel for up to 14 hours back to their own province, possibly infecting thousands on the way, but that's ok. ? Yes you have to go shopping, and if its so dangerous, why is the distancing, log ins, checks, phones, not enforced, why is the eating in restaurants without masks deemed safe as long as you only drink soft drink ? Yet according to you that's all acceptable, but heaven forbid, to drink beer is stupid, unthinking, selfish, uncaring and will kill everyone stone dead within a mile radius 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
