While I understand the mistrust of some regarding the government pushing vaccination as the way out of lockdowns, what’s the alternative? I can’t recall which Nordic nation it was now who decided to go the herd immunity route.... but I don’t think that ended well for them. Anyone have any stats there?
Sweden
Cases
1.11M
Deaths
14,658
Interesting on a total population of probably less than 20 Million I’m guessing. Cases I can live with, it’s a flu. Deaths is another matter. Based on those stats, as much as we hate it, what we’ve done down under is the better alternative.
On a side note, at the conclusion of the latest lockdown in Melbourne, whenever that may be, we will become the most locked down city in the world...
