When you fly over HKG or ICN or Europe it’s still a ghost town. Every day we delay doing the right things as a country is another two weeks of fail.
You mean like, Sweden?
No mandatory lockdowns. Kids going to school. Mask usage south of 10% and yet they are pretty much DONE with the Coof. And yet, there are still those that think Sweden did it wrong. Look at the Worldometers graphs.
All the lockdowns, masks, and socialist distancing in the world isn’t going to stop the susceptible from catching this bug. Isolate the vulnerable. Treat the sick. Mourn the dead and move the F on.
And yes, there has been a positive case in my household. A serious one especially considering she has COPD. But she recovered as have ALL the other people in my life that contracted it. More than half of them with no symptoms whatsoever.
