local recommendations NOT laws and fines I was referring to daily deaths, not total deaths. Here's a fresh chart - all the early deaths were in nursing homes, just like in other countries. Sweden won't be shutting down their country while very few are dying from the disease.

That is a very loaded, propagandizing, Fauci like, data snippet that you decided to post.. Anyhow time will tell if countries with "successful" lockdowns actually managed to reduce total deaths or merely managed to delay them at tremendous cost. As for Swedish regrets, I have not read anything where Sweden said that their approach was a mistake except that they should have done more to protect the vulnerable especially the nursing homes. This approach of protecting the most vulnerable while letting the virus run its course makes sense to me. For the majority, biding enough time, to come up with a cure or a vaccine was a near impossible, impractical, hope, dream, delusion from the get go. With the money spent on lockdowns and handouts in the US, we could have put all of the vulnerable people in their own bubble utopias ten times over. But of course the goal is not to save lives at any cost, but rather to pretend to save lives while generating immense profits. I mean if a few lives are saved coincidently while generating the profits, thats OK too. <S>
