Completely false.
There are few commonalities between Swedish and Australian cultures so any attempt to replicate it would yield very different results. Furthermore, we know enough about containment and suppression strategies to avoid Sweden's exceptionally high death rate.
Baseless statement. Lockdowns are proven effective across the globe.
Again, not just baseless, but there is data showing it to be completely false. Just look at results for testing in Queensland to show how unsound that comment was.
Yet another comment without foundation. It's actually pretty disgusting imho that people would make such a comment as yours given the evidence from other nations as well, not to mention the mass graves that have also been specially prepared for COVID-19 deaths.
And we are supposed to think that your experience has meaning? USA with over 5 million affected citizens and a quarter of all deaths tells a different story.
Oh come on Sdajii. Didn't you see the refrigerator trucks converted to take bodies? And the death rate is double that reported but I suppose you trust their government.You're like the posted child who believes the narrative of the media and government without question and doesn't even bother attempting to interpret it or listen to the meaning of their words. I could imagine you wearing a raincoat and holding an umbrella in full sunshine because the one weather report you saw said it was raining, while all others say it's sunny, and it is, in fact, sunny.

I have friends in the USA and they are living in fear.

You have a history here of spouting unfounded opinions and, as I have shown, many are completely false.

Zero basis for your claim.With few exceptions, this virus is just killing people who were soon to die anyway.
Another false claim.This isn't a real pandemic.
Nobody said people are dropping dead all over the place - a straw man claim. The issue is about a range of other matters repeatedly addressed here that you have zero counter for.Talk to people in the USA, the world's worst affected country, in whatever state you like, and you'll find that it's not a place where people are all dropping dead, the people are not scared because they're actually seeing death and morbidity, they're scared because the television tells them to be scared.
Completely false, again.The plan was supposed to be to brace ourselves for mass deaths....
Wuhan built 3 new hospitals plus transformed other facilities for COVID patients because they did not have capacity. New York hospitals were in crisis - dozens of Governor Cuomo's media briefings confirm this. Spain, Italy the UK and dozens of nations had, and continue to have their medical resources overrun due to COVID-19.But the hospitals are not full. Not here, not in the USA, not in Spain, not in China.
with facts like this, who needs a real world -> @basilio DYOR for at least the 2 first in this list of Rederod facts LOLSpain, Italy the UK and dozens of nations had, and continue to have their medical resources overrun due to COVID-19.
Why can't you use facts to support your points?with facts like this, who needs a real world -> @basilio DYOR for at least the 2 first in this list of Rederod facts LOL
Typical Rederob ,you (not me) state that Italian and Spanish hospitals are overwhelmed , now aka today and when confronted go on a tangent.Why can't you use facts to support your points?
Queensland and most other States/Territories are doing relatively well in all sectors apart from the effects of international tourism and seasonal interstate travel/tourism/hospitality. That's because we are not blighted by COVID-19. So if you are suggesting that protecting our borders has made no difference, then you are part of a rather small club.
Why can't we?Really interested how Australia and the US can be like Sweden......anyone?
We would have to be a lot more socialist. Also less individualistic in some ways and I suppose more individualistic in others. We would need to trust our politicians more.Why can't we?
We need to beat this in Melbourne and it's the people not doing their bit an d spreading it that will cause the lockdown to last longer.
Why can't we?
