Schools are still open in Sweden and the number of children died with or because Covid-19 is... 

"Infants" 0

0-10 year olds: O

10-20 year olds: 4 

20-30: 4

Our outbreak is still merely concentrated around Stockholm and some eastern and middle regions of Sweden also have a notable number if cases.

If open schools would have this severe impact, shouldn't the rest of Sweden then also have an explosion of new cases.

Sweden is going to be a very interesting case study on how to handle this. If their numbers don't explode over the coming weeks then maybe other countries need to use their approach as a guideline.

Today one agency announced that they will look into the numbers and secure the data. They did do a quick dive into it, saying it looked about right but now they will go through every case again.

Hopefully a few other countries also are up to the task. 

I tried to find the numbers for the US but it's a jungle. I couldn't find any data that included when the person actually died. There are alot of delayed reporting so it's hard to predict trends.

Yeah, I feel like there are going to be two different prediction models and response protocols in the end.

1) How does the virus spread in densely populated areas (NYC, Jersey, Italy) and what response is appropriate.

2) How does the virus spread in less dense populations (Sweden, much of the US) and what response is appropriate.

well recently their numbers have been going up. But its still to early to see the true impact of their approach.

Sweden doesn't know what the word "exponential" means. They're right up there with China in misinformation.

Critics question Swedish approach as coronavirus death toll reaches 1,000

Quote

SWEDEN has recorded its highest number of coronavirus deaths in one day after refusing to lockdown like the rest of Europe.

The Scandinavian country's death toll hit 1,203 with a record 170 fatalities reported in the last 24 hours.

We'll never truly know, but if I was hazarding a guess it's probably in the 1% range. That's still 10x deadlier than the common flu.

That's gonna be the biggest problem with this as estimates are all we're going to have to go on.

I think the coming antibody tests will provide a much clearer picture and probably enough of a picture to produce a decent SWAG at least. Right now we don't even have that.

      I think it's strange that you still can't see where I'm coming from, and I guarantee you don't have more faith in him than I do.  You're looking at him in a vacuum, not about the team around him and the likely offensive game plans this season. We're going to be a run first team with 3 receiving options better than any of the other players on past rookie 1k seasons. If you can't understand that, then it's a you problem, not a me problem. Arizona's previous basketball coach, Sean Miller, used to do something at the first team meeting of every season and I think it's soooooooooo applicable to this situation. He'd have every player right down how many minutes/points they expected to average that season and then he'd add them up.  It would show that if they all hit those numbers, we'd score like 125 points a game and need to be playing 7 guys at a time to get their minutes. That's pretty much how you guys are putting your T-Mac expectations out there, looking solely at the player and what you think he should be able to do, not how the offense will operate as a whole. Every yard one player gets is one less yard someone else can get.  It sounds like I just have more faith in Thielen, XL, and Coker this year than most everyone else.  But a big reason for that faith is because of T-Mac and how much he'll open things up for the rest of them and Bryce being the type of QB to take the open easy passes than force it to his #1. As I've said, if any one of the following happens... Thielen ends the season sub 700 yards, XL or Coker end up sub 500 yards... Then yes, I will then shift my expectations for T-Mac's rookie year to be at least 1,000 yard season. But since I have faith in those other 3 having solid seasons, it tempers my expectations yardage totals for T-Mac this year, and this year alone.  I've also clearly stated many times that I think he's going to reach 10 TDs. If T-Mac ends the season with 800 yards and 10 TDs, while Thielen gets 900-1,000 and XL/Coker each get around 600, I don't see any world where that is a failure for a rookie season for T-Mac. Because again, we're talking about expectations, not what is possible.  So given the other WR options, I can't EXPECT T-Mac to get to the 1k mark, which is a far cry from me saying I don't think he can get there. Do you really not see the difference there?

      I don't recall anyone seeing this coming.  I mean, two seperate things for me.  I thought BB just might not work in college football because he is old grumpy man and college is about appealing to young kids.   So yeah, that could of gone great or horrible.  Coin flip.  This isn't that convo for me.  what we are witnessing right now play out.....this was never part of the disaster possibility/path discussed lol.  Really weird stuff.  Or maybe I missed the part where UNC hires a 20 year old "girlfriend" that apparently runs the Bill operation and before the season even starts is taking over more than just Bill but influence of the entire UNC operation.  That was her getting that official statement made today.  It was her sabotaging the Hard Knocks UNC show because she somehow wasn't the star.  Seems like elder abuse lol.  Only largely kidding.  You even got Charles Barkley saying he normally doesn't talk about personal lives of his friends but he might have to check in on Bill because this ain't normal stuff lol.  Anyway, it's entertaining.  Everything is a cartoon it seems these days.

      I think its strange how you were claiming this guy was the second coming of Mike Evans and you can't even get behind 1k yards? I guess I have more faith in him than you
