nope,  thats wrong.

the death rate for covid will come in at under 1 %.
you can bank on that.

and it seems to start dying off when you get to about 20 % of the population testing positive.

thats what happened in sweden and florida and texas

it starts dropping way way way before you get to 60 or 70 % (the usual target for herd immunity).

it could be they arent testing enormous numbers of assymptomatic people or it could be that some people have inherent immunity based on exposure to other corona viruses or the TB vaxxine or god knows what.


but no way sweden has over 6 % case fatality.

I've seen people's skins flare up like burns victims with some of these Anti-Flu/Cold vacs they pump out.

The speed limit , if you halved it, would save some lives.

Mainly young productive lives.

The cost to the economy would be measurable.
Maybe .1 of a percent.

The cost of the covid shutdown in Italy and Spain and France is 12 to 14 %

In Sweden 8 %

And probably that level in Australia.

That's orders of magnitude higher in terms of the damage to the economy.

And you do that sort of damage to an economy and, I assure you , the damage to health will be massive.

You wait and see how many people you know who are going to go down from cancer that was neglected, from mental health.from stroke or heart diseasev
In 2 years, you'll know people destroyed.
I guarantee it.

I doubt you will know anyone who died from covid.

Hear hear sir Aqua.

What Dan fails to recognise is that the economy is health.
Destroy the economy and you destroy health.

Dan has only 1 solution -
destroy the economy.

rubbish,

even reducing speeds outside schools probably saved a few 8 yo's (way more valuable then 88 yo's).
and having to slow down to 40 to go past a school would cost the GDP, .00000000000000000000001 %
if that.

covid has cost closer to 10 %.

do you even know what that means?

its all fine now whilst scomo is maxing out the credit card.

but , to get that in persepctive 1.5 % reduction in america after the GFC resulted in 2 million homeless people .

just the cost to VICTORIA of the lockdown is 5 billion a WEEK.

we had parliament debate whether NBN should go to the home and because it was going to cost an extra 10 billion we said NO.

and thats the cost of 1 state locking down for a fortnight.

i know many lefties cant do maths but they are going to learn quick smart next year when they are unceremoniously booted out of their homes and are living in a tent crapping in a portaloo.

and all so politicians could appear virtuos.
the media could make cash out of fear monering and
the big companies (coles woolies, netflix, google, amazon etc) could record record profits and demolish the opposition from small business which will NEVER recover.

in new york alone 5000 resturants are gone...forever.

and it will be the same for victoria.

meanwhile, maccas and uber eats (foreign) are doing just fine.

the whole over reaction is going to come back and bite people like you so hard, you'll be begging to come and camp on my property and grow a few turnips by the river 

SWEDEN

A land dark half the year, as dark as the very souls and thinking of its perpetually depressed thinkers surviving for generations under the shadow of Communism right across the way......a land from which Herr Dokteur Professor Viktor von Frankenstein III - great grand son of the original - fled after he realised the monster he had set loose with his invention of the Swedish Feminism Monster.. a creature cousin to the Windigo, once a man but now a demon with a heart and soul of ice which devours men without a thought and lays waste to families and reason. 

Viktor was last reported living in refuge inside the hereditary Grappler castle, where he has taken up residence in the wine cellar and consistently drinks out Colonel Professor Grappler's supply of fine whiskey and some fine wine.... his identical twin sister Viktoria, herself a foundation member of the Swedish KoenigerKulturischKommune (Swedish KKK) - a formation of women in Sweden with the ear of every politician - also fled and took refuge in Grappler Castle (Schloss Grappler) where she flirts shamelessly with Colonel Grappler and hopes one day to be his bride... Grappler, of course, considers that A Bride Too Far following his disastrous marriage, and holds his tongue - but not in all ways........ even a quiet tongue has its uses.......

No self-control that Victor... never did have any .... and Viktoria.. well.. what can you say?

HTFU ya babies.
Times have never been so interesting and exciting.
