Youâll love Long Covid - itâs respirarory whiplash for work shy lads
About 22% of the people who participated in the survey reported not being able to work â being fired, taking prolonged sick or disability leave, or quitting â due to their illness. And 45% required a reduced work schedule.
The vaccines are indeed working. Something like 2.8 million people remain without a double dose. and nearly half the population remain without any dose.
To believe that that is not a problem, youâd literally have to believe that all this is a worldwide conspiracy.
And what point from your understanding is the tipping point for safety for full resumption- 70/80% of all over 18 fully vaccinated? Similar percentage but entire population to include.under 18?
Based on that level, how far off achieving those targets are we timewise in your own estimate?
Iâve told you and many more before you that independent studies compare Sweden with other Nordic countries. Whatever complaints you have should be directed to them. They may have good reasons why they donât compare Sweden with the UK. Iâm sure theyâll answer any questions you have.
The Danes are presently at about 55% immunisation so likely less than half when the matches were on. The difference then is their extensive testing as a mechanism that allowed them open far earlier than us?
It seems to me their extensive testing certainly helped to keep things in check. But I highly doubt that was the only reason. Youâd have to take every other regulation into account plus the quality of their health service and their general tendency to be more of a rule-obeying society.
And still all this is unlikely to be enough to keep the Delta variant in check. Denmark has gone from 174 cases on June 27th to a latest daily figure of 1,202.
I wasnât involved in any of the independent reports. They are comparing Sweden to other Nordic countries for reasons that are obvious to me but not to you. I suggest you forward any queries to them. The Swedish government themselves were comparing against their neighbours. Your refusal to accept this is understandable.
