Sweden has no reason to report anyone not serious/non-critical/dead. Why would they?
their plan is people are going to get sick, deal with it.

So your claim is they are hiding cases? I see no evidence of that. They have tested 0.7% of their population, we are up to 1.1%. It's not like they are doing nothing - they are social distancing. Whatever they are doing, it is not resulting in the predicted "explosion".

Yeah but you have to have exponential growth for a meltdown. It's just not happening.

Here's another possibility - maybe this whole thing will fizzle out as temps warm - like seasonal flu. Is it a coincidence that the hardest hit states in the US are in colder climates?

That post was from like 6 weeks ago. Which in today’s news flooded world is like 6 years. At the time there were very few accounts of people actually surviving. Now, yes there’s plenty.

The "accounts of people surviving" wasn't what I was pointing out from six weeks ago. It was the "kinda like...the flu."

Just like the flu, but so much more effective a killer of people.

It's not like the flu.

Any idea where is Sweden? That would work against your temperature hypothesis. I personally believe that a lot has to do with people behavior, Northern Europeans tend to be more organized, respect the rules/laws More than the average Mediterranean European and less incline to touching (hugging, kissing etc.) which makes them perceived as ‘cold’...
 
Has this been covered? ie some folks that might have had this before it was more known. The more this goes on the more I think I "might" have had this in late January. I had a usual seasonal funk in late December but a month later I got something esle. It started slow but spent 9 days in my chest....all total it was almost 2 weeks start to finish. Double the usual time it took to kick anything I've had in the past and really kinda sucked hard at its worst... and then after it was done I had a light cough for 2 weeks more and even then wasn't perfect. makes me wonder.

yeah I think sweden is more related to social behavior and smaller family size. But the US sure shows a trend.
 
forgot my covid observations of the day: 1) road traffic has increased significantly. The days of deserted roads seem to be over. 2) many more people wearing masks in publix today, I'd say 90%. Tho I saw an old lady wearing a mask that looked like a small Chinese food carton strapped over her mouth and nose. oh and blue arrows are back on the floors.

Lame graph using raw data since Sweden has twice the population of the other 3 countries listed.

And yes, Sweden looks pretty good compared to Italy, Spain, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland, NY, NJ, CT, MA...

still looks good. Deaths per 1M pop
also less testing compared to their neighbors.

Agreed, Sweden does still look good. You focus on deaths but we know from yesterday's discussion re: NY vs rest of US that varies widely dependent on health, age, sex of those infected. Incidence of disease in Sweden vs some neighbors is similar, and growth rate of new cases is declining.
