I remember one Swede predicted that its approach will prove the most successful after a year.

We shall see.

individual's short comment should remind us that we know nothing at all the about the efficiency of hundreds of people dressed in plastic and toy box welding masks shoving cotton buds up motorists noses and in their gobs, then sending the buds off somewhere where who knows what happens to be tested. It's all a circus. The idiots running the circus don't care how well Sweden did, or how much better Taiwan did; their egos are more important than truth. They are not going to admit they were wrong and continue to be wrong. There are parallels with the fear, incompetence and brutality of Stalinist Russia in Australia, particularly in Victoria, where the Commissars haven't even wondered why their socialist state is so different from all other Australian states - even the Labor ones.

Swamp donkey,

You are to engineering what Stephen Hawkings was to athletics

Lockdown failed. We must follow the Swedish model and learn to live with Covid... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/09/19/uk-needs-follow-swedish-model-learn-live-covid/

Or we could continue down the path of treating 65 yr olds as dangerous criminals.... http://twitter.com/i/status/1307343400102838273 (only in Victoria could that be considered reasonable).

Or sending out platoons of cops to arrest bikini-clad women....

They had her surrounded so that...um...um...oh FFS this is so bonkers that it can't even be parodied

The Swedish model was panned by grumblers on this forum for not taking the same drastic action as other countries, and certainly initially they suffered many more infections and deaths but given that this is a marathon for which the finishing line is not even in sight, it is beginning to look like the Swedes have pulled far ahead not only in managing the infection but in protecting their economy.

Australian politicians are now too hooked on the power of fear to admit that they have done all the wrong things with the China virus. All the blather about thousands of people dying never came true, so the poor silly sheep are convinced that the actions of dictators have saved them. With cunningly worded poll questions, the baa baas have been convinced that crooks like Andrews and incompetent wets like Morrison have saved them.
