People don't seem to understand that. In fact, no one has ever said that the economy should wait 12 to 18 months, everyone agrees rather that it is necessary to wait for the drop in the curve to possibly speak of deconfinement, but this one does can be implemented only if the health prerequisite for the entire population is effective In France there is talk of setting it up in mid May, but I think it will only really be set up during the month of June 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgerunner Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 It will be interesting 3 years from now to see if the Swedish approach was the way to go or whether the approach followed by most of the world was the way to go. Only time will tell. I just hope the evaluations are objective, fair and unbiased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the whole population has not yet been tested, the ratio in Swedish is not very conclusive and I believe that they are starting to review their copy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both health consequences and economic consequences will need to be considered in those evaluations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many variables in every country it will be very difficult to arrive at a definitive answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgerunner Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Per the Guardian, "China's cases possibly 4x official figure." Anyone surprised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to dig a little deeper before coming to a final conclusion on this. There's a bit more to this dismissal. Well I'd like to hear Mr Trumps side of the story...but that would be a bit tricky cos he;d never heard of him, apparently...😏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone surprised? no it's not surprising but it's like all the countries where freedom of expression is violated and controlled The truth will surely come out one day but it is not today, besides I do not think it is the most important to know it The goal is that we manage to get out of this with the least possible loss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
