    We've hit a plateau in new cases, positivity rate, and tests but deaths are trending back up. Mission accomplished!

    Where is the 1 third of 1 percent death rate noted?

    Sorry I didn't include you in the they will be here lying again before the day is out

    @RaceBannon: They just want more death, period. Doesn't matter how or why, just more death. It's their only chance of winning in November.

    so we've moved from talking about the low death numbers (which no longer exist) to the death rate. The goalpost moving from Trumpworld is something to behold.

    Part 1: We're just testing more so who cares.

    Part 2: Ok fine cases are actually going up regardless of testing but who cares, deaths are down.

    Part 3: Who cares about hospitalizations going up, deaths are still down. Time is ticking.

    Part 4: Who cares how many people died today, post the death rate.

    It was the death rate that mattered in March for a two week lockdown

    Bidentrash lying pieces of shit don't carry about the carnage they inflict

    It's almost as if measuring the efficacy of treatment strategies during a pandemic might be worthwhile.

    Let's ruin the economy
    The economy was going to get ruined with or without a lockdown. Look at this board's favorite case study, Sweden

    https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/07/business/sweden-economy-coronavirus.html

    Ever since the coronavirus emerged in Europe, Sweden has captured international attention by conducting an unorthodox, open-air experiment. It has allowed the world to examine what happens in a pandemic when a government allows life to carry on largely unhindered.

    This is what has happened: Not only have thousands more people died than in neighboring countries that imposed lockdowns, but Sweden’s economy has fared little better.

    “They literally gained nothing,” said Jacob F. Kirkegaard, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington. “It’s a self-inflicted wound, and they have no economic gains.”

    The results of Sweden’s experience are relevant well beyond Scandinavian shores. In the United States, where the virus is spreading with alarming speed, many states have — at President Trump’s urging — avoided lockdowns or lifted them prematurely on the assumption that this would foster economic revival, allowing people to return to workplaces, shops and restaurants.

    In Britain, Prime Minister Boris Johnson — previously hospitalized with Covid-19 — reopened pubs and restaurants last weekend in a bid to restore normal economic life.

    Implicit in these approaches is the assumption that governments must balance saving lives against the imperative to spare jobs, with the extra health risks of rolling back social distancing potentially justified by a resulting boost to prosperity. But Sweden’s grim result — more death, and nearly equal economic damage — suggests that the supposed choice between lives and paychecks is a false one: A failure to impose social distancing can cost lives and jobs at the same time.

    Sweden put stock in the sensibility of its people as it largely avoided imposing government prohibitions. The government allowed restaurants, gyms, shops, playgrounds and most schools to remain open. By contrast, Denmark and Norway opted for strict quarantines, banning large groups and locking down shops and restaurants.

    More than three months later, the coronavirus is blamed for 5,420 deaths in Sweden, according to the World Health Organization. That might not sound especially horrendous compared with the more than 129,000 Americans who have died. But Sweden is a country of only 10 million people. Per million people, Sweden has suffered 40 percent more deaths than the United States, 12 times more than Norway, seven times more than Finland and six times more than Denmark.

    Per million people, Sweden has suffered 40 percent more coronavirus-related deaths than the United States.

    The elevated death toll resulting from Sweden’s approach has been clear for many weeks. What is only now emerging is how Sweden, despite letting its economy run unimpeded, has still suffered business-destroying, prosperity-diminishing damage, and at nearly the same magnitude of its neighbors.

    Sweden’s central bank expects its economy to contract by 4.5 percent this year, a revision from a previously expected gain of 1.3 percent. The unemployment rate jumped to 9 percent in May from 7.1 percent in March. “The overall damage to the economy means the recovery will be protracted, with unemployment remaining elevated,” Oxford Economics concluded in a recent research note.

    This is more or less how damage caused by the pandemic has played out in Denmark, where the central bank expects that the economy will shrink 4.1 percent this year, and where joblessness has edged up to 5.6 percent in May from 4.1 percent in March.

    In short, Sweden suffered a vastly higher death rate while failing to collect on the expected economic gains.

    Imagine how stupid this statement is

    The boot licking hack who supports a compulsory shut down of businesses thinks opening up is communist

    Breathtakingly stupid
    The public isn’t coming back, Mr. Chairman.

    I'm going with the guy that lives in Sweden that the bidentrash ignores

    You're full of shit as usual

    40 million of work isn't a false choice. It's what the Democrats did to America

    It would not have happened anyway. Fuck off
    So only Democratic states enforced lockdowns?
