Sweden: No Signs of herd immunity

[CitizenD]

At this rate there will be a vaccine before that herd immunity thing is acquired.

I'm sure all the dead know they died for a good cause.

Top epidemiologist says Sweden has no signs of herd immunity curbing coronavirus

Ghoulish. What does a statement like that even mean?

It was irony. Sarcasm, to be precise. CitizenD made a statement which in context meant the opposite of what the words meant. He was suggesting that Swedens attempt at gaining herd immunity was a poor choice. Here's another example of sarcasm:
"God Shines Forth! is really good at recognising sarcasm"

Hope that helps.

Nevermindishneth. I wouldn't want my dark, mysterious humour to be taken the wrong way. So that means it's a <delete>.

Actually there is no evidence herd immunity or lockdowns works. So might as well live life and wash hands. The virus will go where it goes, spike in 8 weeks and go to the next place. That's how it works and meanwhile mutating along the way. It works just like the flu which is why we have a flu vaccine new every year but no cure.

That didn't help at all.

Yeah, I can see that. Don't know if it's something in the water or genetic, but Americans are really bad at getting irony.

We just have another name for comments like in the op. I won't go into all of that though.

and here is why there will always be lockdowns, 2.2k people die yesterday but still the mantra they don't work, well doing zilch has really helped great too huh?

The sheep are slaughtered daily, according to all Scripture.... some for lack of knowledge, some for lack of a vision, some (or many) for profit/money/power...

Recently someone got out of prison, and reported (face to face) that out of 500 , about 368 tested positive, but none of them was sick.
Be other published statistics and practices for decades,
it may well be that 300 of them did not even have any pathogens,
and for all of them their immunity may be better than anyone who gets a toxin injected into them, willingly or not.
It might be debated, but published from Wuhan, 80% of the positives were false positives,
and it wasn't mentioned if anyone at all that was tested was actually sick or not.
They mostly all , as expected, were without any symptoms. (and without any shots).

Don't be sure of anything contrary to the Bible. (not even challenging the strange idea(s) of mankind having any good cause(s).) ...
The dead cannot know if they died for a good cause or not,
if this is true (Scripture) >
Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they will die ...
Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing. They have no further reward, because the memory of them is forgotten.
Death Comes to Good and Bad … 4 There is hope, however, for anyone who is among the living; for even a live dog is better than a dead lion. 5 For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing. They have no further reward, because the memory of them is forgotten. 6 Their love, their hate, and their envy have already vanished, and they will never again have a share in all that ...
