Sorry but the data shows otherwise.

As Covid-19 surges globally, Israel is emerging into post-pandemic life
By Hadas Gold and Michael Schwartz, CNN

Updated 3:22 AM ET, Fri April 23, 2021


Jerusalem (CNN)Shuki Weiss is starting to see the post-Covid light.
The music promoter, who has helped bring the Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Rolling Stones to play in Israel, has started to feel his hard-hit industry waking up again in the past month.

"Each show which we have announced in the last 14 days was sold out in like four or five hours, which is not regular in Israel," Weiss told CNN. "In Israel, when people see an ad, see that a show is coming, they don't normally storm the box office ... Now, though, the situation is completely different. Every show which is announced, you see people rushing, blocking our internet site ... All the shows are sold out within hours. People are desperate to see shows here."

While the world recorded more than 5.2 million new coronavirus infections last week, breaking the weekly record for global cases, Israel is now reporting just over 100 new infections daily, a fraction compared to the peak of its pandemic in January.

In Israel, a sense of normalcy is returning to daily life. Masks are no longer required outdoors. The economy is open. It's difficult to get a reservation at many restaurants. Students are back in school full time. Live theater and sports are back on.

Life is normal in most countries anyway. Nobody wears masks in NZ where I am. Masks were never mandated which is what saved many lives. Had NZ forced everyone to wear masks we wouldn't be in the situation we are today where Covid is not an issue.

Sweden has highest new Covid cases per person in Europe
Figure of 625 new infections per 1m people is many times larger than Nordic neighbours


Sweden has reported Europe’s highest number of new coronavirus infections per head over the past week and has more patients in intensive care than at any time since the pandemic’s first wave.

The Scandinavian country, which has opted against strict lockdowns but gradually ratcheted up its still mostly voluntary restrictions, has a seven-day average of 625 new infections per million people, according to ourworldindata.org.



That compares with 521 in Poland, 491 in France, 430 in the Netherlands, 237 in Italy and 208 in Germany, the data showed. The figure was many times higher than the 65, 111 and 132 per million in Sweden’s Nordic neighbours Finland, Denmark and Norway.

According to the Swedish intensive care registry, 392 people were being treated in the country’s intensive care units on Monday, more than the second-wave peak of 389 in January but still lower than the 558 patients in ICUs in spring 2020.


However, while both infections and ICU patients have surged, Sweden’s death toll has so far not risen so sharply, a trend the national health agency said was due to many of the most vulnerable, particularly care home residents, now being vaccinated.

The Social Democrat-led government of the prime minister, Stefan Löfven, postponed a planned easing of some restrictions in late March until at least 3 May, but has insisted tougher measures are not yet needed to bring the latest surge under control.

The Swedish public had “really changed its behaviour and daily life is, to a very great extent, already very restricted”, said the health minister, Lena Hallengren.

The government had planned to ease some rules, including raising the limit on the number of visitors to amusement parks, concerts and football matches, after the Easter break, but was advised against doing so yet by the public health agency.

Non-essential shops have remained open in Sweden, although the government has limited customer numbers, and bars and restaurants have continued to serve, albeit with increasingly tough restrictions on opening hours and alcohol sales.

Restrictions have been steadily tightened on public gatherings but schools have mostly stayed open, although rules vary regionally. Hallengren said last week the government had brought in the measures it believed necessary.

“Whether that has been sufficient, is not a judgment that I can sit here and make,” she told MPs last week. Hallengren said the policy had been to “put lives and health first and protect the healthcare system as much as we can”.

But Hallengren said the government had also tried to “secure society’s other important functions. Once this is over, society should be able to continue to function.” The aim was not to affect people’s private lives “overly much”, she said.

Surveys show Swedes have been paying less attention to recommendations in recent weeks, prompting the country’s chief epidemiologist, Anders Tegnell, to call for greater discipline. “What’s needed is for people to observe the rules we have,” he said.

The country of 10 million people has seen more than 13,000 Covid-related deaths, giving it a death rate per million of nearly 1,350 – many times higher than that of its Nordic neighbours, but lower than in several European countries that opted for lockdowns.

An analysis of official data from several countries showed last month that the increase in excess mortality – a measure of how many more deaths a country has seen than normal – was smaller in Sweden in 2020 than in most European countries.

Infectious disease experts have said the results should not be seen as evidence that lockdowns were unnecessary, but acknowledged they may indicate Sweden’s overall stance on fighting the pandemic may have some aspects worth studying.

Preliminary data from the EU statistics agency, Eurostat, compiled by the Reuters news agency showed Sweden had 7.7% more deaths in 2020 than its average for the previous four years, a lower figure than in 21 of the 30 countries surveyed.

Spain and Belgium, which opted for repeated strict lockdowns, had so-called excess mortality of 18.1% and 16.2% respectively.

However, Sweden did much worse than its Nordic neighbours, with Denmark registering just 1.5% excess mortality and Finland 1.0%. Norway had no excess mortality at all in 2020.

You need to try a lot harder with proper data in you're going to sound convincing. Articles cherry pick the data to suit an agenda. Raw data tells the whole story.

Cases mean nothing because very few are actually sick and case numbers depend on the amount of testing that is being done.

To track the success of each country it is more important to look at the current death rate and cumulative death rate and it shows that Sweden has done a fantastic job thanks to its rational response to a virus which is so mild in most that a PCR test is required to detect an infection.

These graphs show just how well Sweden has done :

(note that the rest of the countries all had hard lockdowns and also mandated masks which made things worse)

If Loong didn't stop the Scoot flights from Wuhan early last year, don't expect him to stop flights from India now.

He is a stubborn and reckless opportunist. He believes that with his stockpile of vaccines, his Govtech devices and his crew of 'ambassadors', he has everything under control. :cool:

This 14 days window period is too short, anyone from India within the last 30 days should be barred from entering Sinkiestan or be in transit.

Look at Nepal and Sri Lanka, sudden surge in COVID numbers.

Yeet! All these countries with 100% increment, or more, in the past week must be placed on a 3 months ban!
