      So are Sweden too


      Anders Tegnell says more should have been done early on to stem coronavirus in Sweden.


      Anders Tegnell, Sweden's state epidemiologist, has admitted for the first time that his decision to avoid mandatory lockdown in favour of voluntary social distancing has led to too many deaths.


      Would you have sacrificed 4000 for 2% on the economy ?

        On a completely different topic, I am seeing so many reports about "Tracers" complaining in the Media abut being paid to do nothing. There is another on the BBC Web Page this morning complaining of being paid to watch Netflix.

        The solution for these people is simple. They can just quit. Hand in their notice then sit at home and watch Netflix for nothing. What's their problem?

        There are more than enough people out there who would bite their hands off for the job, including all the student who normally supplement their grants by working in pubs, and including my boy who applied 2 weeks ago and hasn't even had acknowledgement of his application yet.

          No chance....but I think we are going to have to live with this thing for a few years, people will die and economies will suffer in that time.

                People who want something to do so that they actually earn their wage from the government are a problem?

                      I wonder if in Sweden there has been 4500 more seasonal deaths than usual? I thought they’d suffer a lot more than they have considering no lockdown and it appears to be fading away like it has in all other countries who did implement one.

                        Yes, . If they feel it is wrong they can, as I suggested, just resign, quit, walk out, stop doing it, desist, and then they can watch Netflix for nothing.
                        Then, as I said, the job can be given to people who are happy to be paid to sit and do nothing.
                        I don't even understand why the media report it except to stir the shite?

                          To report that the Govt's test and trace system isn't running as well as they have advertised... I'd imagine.

                          Your vitriol is being aimed at the media and the people whistleblowing about what's happening instead of the Govt. responsible for what's happening... That's funny

                            They are confirmed covid deaths.

                              Perhaps it is and there are no people for her to call? For me its just silly for anyone to complain for getting paid to do nothing. As I said, its too easy to resign and let someone else have the stress of doing nothing for money.
                              Whether the ssytem is working or not wasn't my point, the point was the woman complaining about getting paid for nothing. What really made me smile was that the article said she had only spoken on condition that she remained anonymous. i wonder why? Perhaps it was for fear of losing the great job she has?
