Likewise. As said, sweden proved conclusively that masks and restrictions
did not work, and swedens health care agencies proved that there was no
point in vaccines for anyone under 60.
I seriously doubt you will go through swedish statistics. So here we are.
My view supported by the governments own actions and statistics, and you
denouncing me.
Of course we'll never have a conversation or exchange of views. I'll go
back to my team and you'll go back to your team, and never will the two
meet.
On the other hand, I think that is actually for the best, and if only the
two teams could vote with their feet, their respective landing places will
both be happier communities.
