^^^ yep

Also he said Switzerland instead of Sweden.

But he's right and I've said it before too. How the **** did we go from "Flatten the Curve" to "lockdown until there's a vaccine" ???

Seriously **** this shit.

There are people that are at risk. Let them isolate. And let the rest of us get back to our lives.

In Canada, we are still at far lower deaths nationwide than 2018's deaths due to the regular flu.

2018 Flu deaths: 8,511

2020 Covid Deaths: 5,562

And yes I know the year isn't over yet... but it's just not shaping up to be anywhere near as bad as we were led to believe.

“We’ve unfortunately had six pure, solely coronavirus deaths — six out of 3.3 million people,” San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond said in an interview this week, according to the San Diego Tribune. “I mean, what number are we trying to get to with those odds? I mean, it’s incredible. We want to be safe, and we can do it, but unfortunately, it’s more about control than getting the economy going again and keeping people safe.”

From Wiki: In the United States, the average annual death toll from lightning is 51 deaths per year, although more recently, in the last 10 years (2009-2018), the U.S. has averaged only 27 lightning fatalities; the riskiest activities include fishing, boating, camping, and golf.

More than 2/3 of the deaths here were people in Long-Term Healthcare facilities.

In other words; frail and/or old people with pre-existing conditions.

I'm not saying their lives are worthless. I'm just saying we should use EXTREME measures on the vulnerable and not the entire population.

In my province of 15+ million people there are 989 people hospitalized due to covid and 135 on ventilators.

The curve is flat. That was the goal.
