Question about Sweden

Will they have herd immunity after this?  Might have some high numbers, but maybe it will pay off in the next couple of years?

Thoughts?  Insults?

If there is a vaccine by then, which there probably will be, the Swedes approach is going to look stupid.

Thought you guys were saying it would take 4 years?

That was me. Read this.

Y’all really need to start reading what actual scientists are saying about all of this instead of what you personally think. It’s hilarious reading some of these comments on here.

Normally? Sure. Now? Not a chance. There will likely never he another time during our lifetimes when as much medical research focus will be concentrated on a single issue. There are already multiple potential vaccines in phase 1 trials. There will be a vaccine widely available during the 2021 calendar year.

That’s not what the top scientists are saying but you can think what you want obviously.

My primary source is a PhD who formerly worked for the CDC and who currently works for John Hopkins. Her specialty is infectious disease research. She was my wife's college roommate. But I mean hey, if you know a "topper" scientist than that...

Sweet. So everything I’ve read is saying this could be 3, 4, 5 years. They don’t really know. They can make a vaccine quick. Doesn’t mean it’s going to actually widely work or be safe. It takes years to properly test.

Actually, I was wrong on that previous post. She just tweeted one potential vaccine has already passed phase 1 trials and is on to phase 2.

      FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.

      That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?

      Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
