Medically for flu/corona, you are right. Other bar chart really shows how lock downs are ineffective. Shows data on total deaths including those difficult to count due to lack of hospital care for preexisting conditions or just fear of followup or diagnosis. Righto, JayMan ??

Total official Swedish COVID deaths is less than 6,000. Could easily be swamped by random noise in total death counts.

Which begs the question,
@JayMan471 , why in the blue blazes are you and your crew (including 49 governors, I might add) so durn worried about this ??1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Nothing saying it’s going to stay at 6,000. Plus that’s still 6,000 people who didn’t need to die.

Yeah, in Sweden it probably is. New herd immunity threshold estimate is ~20% seroprevalence. Stockholm waa about that a couple of months ago. Consider that 80% of cases are too mild to produce blood antibodies, but did have T-cell response. 20 + 80 = ?

Nope. Sweden is nowhere near herd immunity.

You have no idea. Talk to
@SunetraGupta or@mgmgomes1 about herd immunity theshokd. It's not rocket science. <20% of cases produce blood antibodies. Stockholm was near 20% seroprevalence a while back. There is no social distancing and essentially no ICU admissions or deaths.2 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -

I always find people producing their own misleading charts to be odd. This is the chart that you get if you go to Statistics Sweden about the time period of COVID-19 of daily deathspic.twitter.com/YEU5JCfBjl

It's almost as if a virus slightly more deadly than the flu burned through the usual natural mortality more quickly because there was little natural resistance

Lol what utter nonsense. As I said, people who make their own ridiculous graphs are confusing to me. COVID-19 is at least 10x as deadly as influenzahttps://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.07.23.20160895v4 …

"Across 32 different locations, the median IFR was 0.27% (corrected to 0.24%). Most studies were done in pandemic epicenters with high death tolls." https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.13.20101253v3 … Some people desperately want this to be the apocalypse. It really is bizarre to watch.

That paper is quite flawed, as I've pointed out. What I do find bizarre is the number of politically-motivated anonymous accounts producing incorrect graphs that are taken seriously. Very strangehttps://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1283232023402868737?s=20 …
