A very expert doctor predicts that when CV runs its course that 800,000 US citizens will be DEAD! Many will DIE of CV in TV. I won't be to blame. I will promise to read your links when you promise to Google -- "Sweden admits to being wrong ABOUT "HERD IMMUNITY"!
There are Doctors and nurses rushing to Miami. I believe that freezer trucks are ordered. Perhaps THEY forgot to read your pretty graphs? I hope it is not too LATE to call them back. People that downplay, should ask, "What if I am wrong". The wrong answer is DEATH TO FRIENDS. The other answer is only inconvenience. What choice would a good gambler make? And then there is my question about motivation? I KNOW why I am saying my ideas.
I googled your site and found it was posted June 3rd, a lifetime ago in virus terms. I then googled the CURRENT conditions in Sweden as of July 19. Interestingly, there was ONE death on 7/19 which was the lowest since March 10th's zero deaths at the beginning of the pandemic. I also saw that new cases were 115. Again the lowest daily number since March 10th's total of 98. All of this without shutting the economy down and no surge like we have now. So, Sweden did make a mistake by not encouraging the older part of the population to take precautions early enough but then again, who knew at the beginning of this whole mess? You can verify this data here: Sweden Coronavirus: 78,048 Cases and 5,639 Deaths - Worldometer

My bottom line is it looks like Sweden is ahead of us now due to herd immunity.
