Interesting. Not a single mask on that Stockholm train.... Gov Newsom would be upset that the nose picker was not masking up between bites...

From arcgis.com

Stockholm, Sweden
Case-Fatality Ratio: 8.66%


Sweden
Case-Fatality Ratio: 5.86%

California, US
Case-Fatality Ratio: 1.93%


So, masking in California seems to reduce the death rate by 2 to 5 times, most likely due to the reduced viral load from exposure while both parties are masked.

Either that or we are doing a lot more testing in CA to find those who have it but don't show symptoms and thus don't die and will lower the case-fatality ratio ONCE COUNTED! Yet another reason Trump is seen as an idiot by many for complaining about too much testing...

Basically, without a proper analysis of the data, pictures from a train or a CA beach of people "behaving badly" is not proof of anything other than people don't like the lockdown rules and often ignore them.

New York, US
Case-Fatality Ratio: 7.01%

Florida, US
Case-Fatality Ratio: 2.09%
