Trumpstyle said: Okey guys, time for another fun post. This will be a post about our virus dude (Anders Tegnell) and people close to him on what they knew. Already back in January, Anders Tegnell knew the death rate of the Covid virus was the same as something called The spanish illness. Anders Lindberg is an advisor to Anders Tegnell Anders Tegnell also believes that 90-95% of the people who get the virus will only have very mild symptons. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2MajAQvpY8 (25:45, swedish only) Johan Giesecke our previous virus dude has made statement that the worse will be over in late May and Wuhan has achieved herd immunity. "I think this will go fast. The worst could be over by the end of May. A large part of the population will become immune so that we achieve herd immunity. They seem to have reached it in Wuhan, he says." Swedish version: https://www.vt.se/nyheter/giesecke-vi-kommer-att-klara-det-har-om6551023.aspx
To sum it up, Anders Tegnell and people close to him believes 90-95% will have very mild symptons from the covid virus, Wuhan has already achieved herd immunity, the death rate is the same as The spanish illness and the worse will be over in May. (Note some countries that did lockdown that prevented the spread will w8 longer like germany, Finland). As I pointed out before the entire world atm seems to make their decisions based on math models while we here in sweden is making our decisions based on evidence based medicine, that's why we seeing such a different. |
I don't know, Giesecke sounds overly optimistic to me. And I'm pretty sure it's Stockholm specifically that might be heading towards herd immunity, not the country as a whole, and it's probably based on a recent blood test where 11 out of 100 tested persons had antibodies against the virus. Could be a good sign but it's not enough to draw any conclusions from.
