Maybe the herd immunity/protect the economy theory was not such a good idea after all.
US deaths per million is 62.1
Sweden deaths per million is 87.5
UK deaths per million is 187.5
Italian deaths per million is 322.2
Womp Womp
Try again, maybe next time cherry pick your data better
America and Sweden are doing way better than the UK, and way fucking better than the model you seek to emulate, Italy
What's this shit about wanting to emulate Italy?
I don't have the patience for your strawmen so keep them to yourself please.
New York with a population 8 times smaller than the UK has the same death toll and it is only just spreading across America so think again. We've not run out of intensive care beds or ventilators either.
Your figures are out as well. The population of the UK is 69 million, do the maths yourself. You're out by about 30%.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.
New York with a population 8 times smaller than the UK has the same death toll and it is only just spreading across America so think again.
You think again, America has 3 times less deaths per capita than the UK, and New York is about to hit its peak and then the numbers will tail off, and it will easily be the hardest hit American city by several orders of magnitude
Time to give up this "the more government intervention that is happening, the better job the government is doing" schtick, maximizing economic damage does not equal a more successful strategy, as Sweden kicking the UK's ass is a prime example of.
