Our prime minister told us that food banks need help because more people are in need right now, specially kids. Mostly because parents "lost" their jobs or are waiting for a unemployment pay. So he asked people who are unemployed to be volunteers to pack food or serve soups 🤔. Did we create the problem? They closed stores and schools to favorise social distancing... I don't get either the hype and lockdowns now. Compare it to the swine flue that killed if I remember right a half million people, which were mostly not elderly and we didn't do shit. The swine flu had a much lower mortality rate, just 0.02%.

Also I just read on a Swedish site it was 0,5% and it says that it’s probably even higher because they couldn’t keep track of it and a lot of countries didn’t report.

Also in Swedish news papers it says the researchers think the corona mortality rate is 0,5-1,0 and not what they said so far at 3%.

Just watching a documentary here on Swedish national tv about how it all started. Now I’m even more convinced it’s planned/planted (😌). The timing of the Chinese New Year was on point = they travel and fly most during this time 😒

yes. They told him to go back home and wait for the results. WTF I don't know what happened but that's a shame. However, an hotel has been set up for homeless people who are awaiting test results. And an old hospital is converted into a "COVID-19 isolation unit" for homeless people just opened I think, but a couple of days too late.☹️

They wrote here about a guy that tested positive for it without feeling any symptoms at all for over 12 days. But yeah my comment was about maybe us making bigger problems in the society than it’s needed. But then again, who knows. Better be safe than sorry, but there’s a fine line there too, when we start ruining things that make people survive daily.

My friend just posted this.... Seeing how people move, and thinking about what happens when things can spread when people aren’t careful. 😬
