Mass testing in Norway and Sweden:
2% in Oslo
10% in Stockholm
Have had Corona- Under 2% here too :/
Looong way to 80% required for herd immunity...grafician - ...well, as we all know norwegians can't be trusted... "most" of the testing in sweden has been made on elderly peeps and nursing homes which hasn't been...ArchitectofFate
- ...sufficiently protected, 50% of swe-deaths are people from nursing homes...
the 10 percent stats is based on:ArchitectofFate - 1000 random tests sent to peeps in stockholm, and out of that they got 450 working tests analyzed. "mass testing"ArchitectofFate
- ^Was waiting for someone to post about how half the Sweden numbers came from nursing homes...grafician
- Sweden's chief in charge of the pandemic acknowledged that they were surprised of the numbers as they didn't protected the nursing homes enoughgrafician
- All the serology tests are indicating incredibly low IFR for <70 + social distancing for the elderly is possible.kingsteven
- Under 2% here too :/

There's a debate raging as to if governments are over-reporting covid deaths and it's lead to some crazy and not so crazy conspiracy theories.
It's probably impossible to get the numbers absolutely right, so I say better over-reporting and being overly cautious than under-reporting and putting us at risk.
Can you imagine if the powers that be said corona numbers are tiny, no Big deal, get back to work everyone, nothing to see here...The conspiracy nutjobs would lose their minds even more.
"The government is hiding the true scale and they want us to go back to work and die!!!!"
- The numbers are too low actually, we know for a fact there isn't nearly enough testing going on.zarkonite
- Over reporting?! It's the opposite! They can't count all the dead 'cuz fast enough in the hardest hit places!grafician
- Whoever is debating over reporting needs to read A LOT more about itgrafician
- 'fog of war' shit... A year or two from now we'll actually be informed people... till then we're conspiracy theorists, opinionists or just assholes.PonyBoy
- We knew this was going to happen. If lockdown measures work = the virus has less impact = it was never a big deal in the first place.inteliboy

- ...that hard, but we still under a soft lockdown, not business as usual for the foreseeable future.grafician
- But how that website shows countries handling this pandemic is misleading. I mean we could say no new cases like China and be on the good side lolgrafician
- It's based on each country reporting numbers vs. reaching the peak, but some countries might never reach the peak as Sweden. And us in RO...grafician

- Take our fake death count in NY by corrupt Cuomo and we'd be lower than anyone else... 84% of NYC deaths were retired people.robotron3k
- So many people died at home too scared to go into general care or emergency, some crazy mismanagement. But Cuomo wears nice new suits everyday.robotron3k
- Just like a miracle, it will all go away!utopian

What's going on in China, as far as the COVID-19 pandemic?
They expelled all foreign journalists and stopped reporting their cases/deaths.
Is there really no way of knowing of how bad the situation actually is there? Or that/if they have a cure/vaccine already?
- It's not that much of a mystery. There are millions of foreigners living in China, people vlogging about their lives on YouTube etc.yuekit
- Also they didn't expel all foreign journalists, just one or two papers that offended the government somehow.yuekit
- it's going to be very interesting when we find out how the u.s. lied and mismanaged the virus.... but, but, china!renderedred
- The part that a lot of people miss is that most of China barely got the virus. There was a severe epidemic in Wuhan, but the government imposed shutdowns inyuekit
- other cities before things got too bad. Even if you don't trust CCP numbers, look at Hong Kong. 30 minute metro ride to mainland China and very few cases there.yuekit
- @yuekit mind citing some of your sources for the info you're giving here?Krassy
- Krassy here you can see the numbers by region: https://www.statista…yuekit
- As you can see the vast majority of cases were only in Hubei province, where Wuhan is.yuekit
- And I understand people don't necessarily trust the Chinese government, but I do think the numbers in Hong Kong and Macau which are not run by the CCP and haveyuekit
- independent media, can be trusted.yuekit
- If the virus was really out of control in China, it would be really hard to keep it out of Hong Kong, which is right next to Shenzhen, one of the major cities.yuekit
- yes, it's hard to believe much, if anything, reported by the CCP.Krassy
- Maybe so, but there were also a lot of crazy theories about China that turned out to be false.yuekit
- Munsk said on joe rogan china is back at full steam around 1:23:0 in his conversationuan

"There is one, and only one strain of SARS-CoV-2"
https://www.virology.ws/2020/05/…
"The moment a preprint emerges describing a new patient isolate of SARS-CoV-2, with a change in the genome sequence, the world seems to explode with concern about a new viral ‘strain’. I want to explain why such angst is misguided and in the process explain exactly what is a virus strain and a virus isolate."
- utopian2
Is there really only just (1) strain???
- Seems like the article above is simply questioning the definition of "strain" that the press is using.yuekit
- Yes the virus has mutated, this is more of a debate over semantics.yuekit
- ALL viruses mutate. All.********

- There were several known corona viruses already there before this. So yeah. A bunch.monospaced
- It seems like they are hundreds of COVID-19 goal posts that the politicians, scientists and the news media keep moving around like a board game.utopian
- The bottom line is that know one knows shit about shit. Who and what should we really trust?utopian
- well if you watched the peak prosperity videos i linked to you'd have a better understanding of it all...shapesalad
- Viruses mutate each time they duplicate themselves. but it's whether the mutation is 'silent' or not, then if it's dominant or not.shapesalad
- the mutations that 'stick' and prosper, leave a trail, a family tree, lineage. Hence why covid19 is likely lab made, as it has no close cousins or relatives.shapesalad
- @shape isn't corona a "family" of viruses?renderedred
- There are a lot of corona bat viruses out there though shapesalad. Humans have not come close to identifying them all.yuekit
- That was the whole point of what researchers were doing in China. So bit of a catch 22 thereyuekit
- sure, we haven't identified them all, however, they do all have a family tree, parts of dna, linking them to a common ancestor. Except covid19shapesalad

"Katie Miller, Vice President Mike Pence's press secretary, has tested positive for the coronavirus.
Miller is the wife of Stephen Miller, President Donald Trump's senior adviser and primary speechwriter. Her positive diagnosis raises the possibility that people close to the president have been exposed to the virus."
