Anders Tegnell, the state epidemiologist of Sweden, compared the pandemic to a forest fire on 16 March 2020 (here machine-translated) and said it should be let burn "slowly and carefully". https://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/a/6j7vaO/anders-tegnell-hyllar-brittisk-tanke-kring-flockimmunitet-dit-vi-beh …pic.twitter.com/1NcjU5bfM8

If you had just let us clear cut the forest it wouldn’t have burned in the first place

Sadly, climate scientists and activists have dealt with this approach for decades.

okay this is a good analogy but sadly that is actually what the forest management strategy is evolving into. Building fire-resistant houses and letting all forest fires burn
