  1.  @jonaseggen2230  I tried to explain to him already before extensively, that Sweden cannot be compared to other countries. He is firmly fixed on the idea that Sweden has archived herd immunity. Which of course is impossible. But I do think that Sweden has done something right. Protect the vulnerable and weak, and risk the young healthy ones get infected, because most can take it. I could imagine they have a point in saying, lets compare our death rates a year later from now. That with the older people was no intention, it was a mistake, and they admitted it.

  3.  @Dermahon13  Sweden has not done any better than other countries, and not worse either. That with the herd immunity is a myths, it is mathematically impossible to get herd immunity in 6 months. You are asking for article links, but if it is written somewhere on the internet it's more worth than I said? However here is an article from last month, it talks about 15 % herd immunity for Sweden. https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20200813/swedens-no-lockdown-policy-didnt-achieve-herd-immunity Now one months later I read somewhere it's about 20 %, but only around the Stockholm area. Instead of using one single country as a prove for weird theories, look at all these countries such Taiwan, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand with their strict measures, and all of them fare comparable so much better. Just now in exactly this video you were given the opportunity to see the data of the Melbourne area and how draconian measures protected the rest of the country. But you keep on pulling out one single country and that's for your a prove of a tin foil hat theory. The problem with people like you, selectively chosing articles and stuff that confirm your believes, not acquiring knowledge. You can't expect others to fill your lack of knowledge, you have to do that yourself. In particular in the last 6 - 8 weeks there are so many flat earthers and tin foil head theorists around. I connect this post also with the call to Dr. Campbell and others to take this finally serious now, and not continue ignoring this very serious problem.

  4.  Felipe Murillo  Indeed, it is worth taking a closer look at Sweden's strategy. It is however wrong that they didn't do anything, as what some believe. Protecting the weak and vulnerable but at the same time accepting a certain risk for the young and healthy is not unreasonable to me. I do however believe the Swedish strategy does not fit everyone. I do strongly oppose Dr. Campbell's position on what he calls euthanasia in Sweden. Euthanasia is the intentional ending of somebody's life to relieve pain and suffering. They did that in this cases where they believed that the person had not much life in front of him anyway, because of other serious sicknesses for example, and treating a heavy virus infection would not do anything for the patient anyway. One can criticise this, but I would be more careful doing so. My father (87 yo) says to us, his family: "If it gets me let me die. I don't want to be in a hospital bed suffering this for weeks and connected to oxygen, and then later my lungs do not work anymore well, or such". Would you respect his wishes? The UK and the USA are two countries where for too long nothing had been done, and then what was done was too weak, too little, and wrong. How about calling that murder? Just now at this very moment the numbers in Britain are soaring, but their response is weak.

  5. The UK's daily new cases are hovering around the 1 1/2 thousand new infections mark since about 2 weeks. That's not really what I call declining.

  6. @norceros xD Viruses don't go way with antibiotics. Sorry I am leaving here. I don't want to share rumours or suspicions. I know what I know.

  7. Returning to the "experts". The WHO did only invite scientists to participate who were pre-selected by China. Only what the CCP believes will be accepted as the truth, regardless what is the truth. Everything that diverts from the official statements will be defamed as racist, western propaganda, etc.. If they have no more arguments, then they will say the west being jealous about their success, and that is why we are badmouthing China. They created their own reality that has been taught in schools and universities for decades. The "experts" won't change anything on that. All countries need to rethink relationships with dictatorial regimes in general.

  8.  @essanjay8604  I can only say, after 7 weeks of complete lockdown I appreciate, that from 12 of June onwards we are able to move around freely in Singapore, go everywhere and meet anyone we like. My son can go to school (with mask), we can enjoy the beach etc etc.. I do not like masking up in this climate. But in comparison to lockdown, this is the much better option. Until a vaccine arrives by the second half of 2021. It took 7 weeks here to bring these figures down, but other countries were good after 3 weeks. Many locals flouted the rules. Support your government, doing else does not make sense.

  9. - Rinsing the hand with water only, part of the reason why there is rarely soap in Chinese restrooms - Blowing the nose into a tissue is considered unhygienic - Putting the food remainders on the table, instead keeping them on the own plate - spitting out and snorting in public - public urinating all these points are Chinese traits. Chinese people need to learn and correct this NOW!

  10. Aligns with the German "Heinsberg" findings by Dr. Streek. In hotspots currently around 15 % of populace has the virus without knowing it. It is as important to test with reliable antibody tests, as it is to do swap tests. We know that already, so, now world ... Do it, just Do It!
    2
  11.  @shookn  That what you call a study is a statement of some dentists from New York. They claimed that permanent mask wearing causes people to breath through the nose instead of the mouth. Therefore the mouth would drying out from saliva, which is an important factor for the dental and gums health. Breathing through the nose is in reality what we are meant to do. Mouth breathers can have all kind of health problems, incl. respiratory problems and higher infection rates. I have no idea how a dentist - a dentist! - could make such a statement. It is however known some mask wearing children become lazy regarding dental hygiene, thinking nobody can see or smell it anyway.

  12. I was frankly speaking very surprised that you brought the "study" for hydroxychloroquine up. A review of historical data with no control. Or: Somebody reads some hospital data and writes up his opinion.

  13.  @UForgotUrMarriedLOL  right, we see bathing as completely redundant. Nobody in Europe takes baths. The entire continent smells. I don't even need flatten my underwear anymore, it is so stiff from all the dirt, it can stand upright by itself.

  14. John, would it be more accurate for getting closer to reality looking at the figures from developed countries, and assume them as more reliable? Numbers of infected, serious cases, discharged, mortality, etc.

  15. The hair being a nest for the virus was found in Germany, too. The hair stylists must wash the hair of people who want a hair cut. BTW. Chinese nurses shaving their heads: For Asian ladies shaving their head hair is an enormous sacrifice. And before a western lady comes up here with "me too", I can tell you, for an Asian lady it is on a completely different level. For this reason Singapore uses it occasionally as a form of punishment to women who did repeatedly breach the immigration rules.

  16. None of this has antiviral properties.

  17. 15:45 This is not a race, Dr. Campbell. This is a pandemic that would require the world to co-operate. The UK plans to vaccinate all OWN people FIRST, and afterwards to be the major supplier of vaccine in the world. I guess that says it all.
    2
  18. There is not much testing done, because testing is quite useless unless you have already strong indicators. The swap test ist taken from the nose or the mouth. This Covid-19 likes to live in the lower lungs. Unless you are already pretty far into the sickness, there will be no occurence in the upper respiratory tract.

  19. Since February 2020 Taiwanese virus experts were saying masks are more effective than physical distance. Taiwan never had a real lockdown, and is no. 1 in successfully containing the virus spread. At the same time the WHO was saying that masks could do more harm than help.

  20.  @paulg8730  ... and I would say nobody should take them for a joke. These are really tough people. Thailand and Vietnam had been always my favourite country to travel to since started in Asia 25 years ago. They are also business-wise more reliable partners than others.

  21. That is a good question, James. And btw, it's being said some dogs have shown to be close to 100% accurate.

  22.  @KealeyMissMultiFairy  according to statements by South Korean cult church members who held services in Wuhan until end of December, the first rumours appeared already by beginning of November 2019. Over the weeks in December they said there had been several warnings issued from various sides, all being ignored. One of them on 30. of December by the group of 8 doctors, which were then reprimanded. On the 6. of January one of the government science bodies issued a warning, a copy of that document was floating around on the internet. The ex Wuhanese major was ordered by the top of the CCP to keep silent about the spread. He was later kicked by the CCP blaming him for failing to inform the public and act. On 18. of January they still held a public mass potluck dinner with more than 150 k people to celebrate Lunar New Year. https://www.ibtimes.sg/focus-wuhan-potluck-dinner-cpc-fires-party-leader-hubei-amid-sharp-spike-deaths-39328 . It is how the CCP system works, there will not be a single line of information issued without the CCP blessing it. It is the perfect example why freedom of speech is necessary for a society. It would make a highly interesting documentary to line this all up. The world would learn why China is not the right trade partner to rely on, and sure not ready to be a world leader.

  23.  @jukeseyable  he is coming out with this to save his butt. I don't have the impression he actually knows what he is talking about. Anyways, careless accident, yep, that's is how I experienced Chinese when working in China.

  24.  Stephen Murray  If it was me, and I was sure that this mask is the right type, not one against gases, and I had no other protective equipment, then I'd start to cough. In Taiwan it is an offence not wearing a mask in supermarkets or public transport. In Singapore where I live it has just now made to an offence.

  26. After winter we will know about Sweden's approach, probably already a few weeks into the season.

  27. I believe disregarding or putting the population second place in a pandemic situation is in the end far more costly, than a temporary downturn in economic situation. I am also missing the help and social engagement of big cooperates. Measuring the temperatures at the reception desk is sure not enough.

  28. Herd immunity was not the official goal in Sweden. The goal is to protect the sick, weak and older people. The younger ones can take it easier and with them the government builds on trust and responsibility. I wonder that not more Swedes protest here.

  29. Can we nominate all the prime ministers, presidents, great chairmans of the world, these who give quality advice similar to the orange Julius Caesar? What they can do is founding the United Nations of incompetent voters. Mr. Trump is member no. 1 and chairman.

  30. It is generally time that politicians better would step back a little, and let scientist and medical experts be in the front row. Dr. Campbell has the advantage that he had trained people for many years, often in Asia. He knows how to explain critical issues comprehensible for everyone. I believe that's also what DW TV likes about him.

  31. John, any problem with your cough? I have noticed it already last October.

  32. The first company launching a vaccine which does not work or even harms humans will be losing the trust of the entire population, probably forever. People will look for compensation, start to distrust other products from that company, the shares would free-fall. That company can say bye bye. It is as simple as that.

  33.  @jim2111  all these countries have done better, because they know the big brother from the North.

  34.  @RoseForTheDoctor  that's pretty high. From 103 I feel like want to be dead :)

  35.  @geoattoronto  and John also proves that we need to get back to the important, the essential. This is learning how it works.
    2
  36.  @jfrankerickson8993  that is the time to flatten the curve under good conditions, wearing mask, physical distancing, no assemblies, not church services, good hygiene, etc.. The German curve showed that (among others), but no need to ask, I am not going to dig that out for you. I am not your Google.

  37.  @OceanFrontVilla3  There are quite a number of Chinese living in Italy, the Lombardy has more than 100,000, many of them from the Hubei's textile industry. It also would explain well the sudden explosion of cases in the Lombardy later on. The first infected person in France was found to have happened around the 1. week of December, a fishmonger who never travelled to anywhere. But his wife works in the tourism industry.
    2
  38.  @iggle6448  A hospital in Milano reviewed a number of samples they had taken from the lungs of patients treated in October / November. Without knowing what it is, they had kept them. The same for the sample from that french fishmonger. On later study they found it's Covid-19.
    2
  39.  @iggle6448  By end of November 2019 a South Korean church community was called back home to South Korea. About 140 members were residing in Wuhan, and some reported that local hospitals in Wuhan had mysterious lung disease cases. That church community was later the cluster for the South Korean pandemic spread. You can look that up, the story is still on the net, unlike other documents that were removed. Some weird pastor who told his sheeple nobody will get sick, they will all be saved by god. The same church had a chapter in Singapore, where I live. The government closed the Singapore chapter.

  40.  @rogerstarkey5390  to compare countries I think it is much more useful to look more at the death and the recovery rate. The number of infected alone is not so relevant. And then Spain for example does not look as bad anymore. They might not have enough ICU beds, but for the other patients they did pretty well. Look at the UK's recovery rate.
    2
  41. I think the same as you. One day someone will carry all the facts together, the origin and course of the spread, collect reports, statements and recommendation issued by the WHO, why Vietnam and Taiwan had much earlier knowledge (and respectively the needed policies), why most countries in the world were just looking from the outside and doing nothing, and also about experiences that contradicted official policies (such as from Sweden).

  42.  @erics2305  There are market forces who will work strongly against giving people a medicine that costs only cents.

  43.  David Ward  may be. But that is untested, and therefore so far not supported by Biontech and Pfizer. Understandable. It seems this idea is more to give the British health system an urgent needed room to catch a breath. I wonder if the same makes sense in countries where the health system is under pressure, but not yet strained as much, such as Germany. And I wonder if the problem overall will only be prolonged with that proposed system.
    2
  44.  David Ward  Thanks for your message. This is not convincing enough to me, David. I rather have the vulnerable fully protected fast, than have them only 50% protected but may be more people. It means, all these people might still get infected but with lesser serious illness as a result. So, after they get infected we hope or think they all will survive, and lesser people will need hospitalisation - and all of these should then be immune anyway, not needing a second shot anymore. To me it appears this needs to be tested and not decided on assumption basis. If Astrazenica testet it, fine. Then let scientists decide. Biontech did not. Lastly, looking at how many companies are developing vaccines, I seems until mid next year we have plenty and the problem will be more based in distributing them.

  45.  @robertwhite3503  some people would not like the mRna type, since it is new development. They prefer the older and proven types, where the properties are know for many years. In my eyes mRna is the future, from all I read.

  46.  @Fryegar  we had that already, Johnny. We are all united in that Tedros has to go.
    2
  47. Tedros had been lifted into his position by China, that is well know. Why do you need Mr. Pompeo to say that first? Margret Chan was the health Director of the Hong Kong government before she headed the WHO. Margret Chan became famous in Hong Kong after her "I ate chicken last night" press statement during the avian flue, when millions chicken had been culled in Hong Kong. Another eyebrow raising statement of her contained praise for the North Korean Health system. According to her it would be the envy of the world. As well, she praised that there are no obese people in North Korea. Margret Chan is known to be a keen servant to Chinese interests. Hong Kong people were happy when she left to become the Director-General of the WHO. In that position she was essential for making Tedros to her successor. There is a video on Youtube showing how he failed with his presentation, and could not answer even simple questions. Other videos that existed before explaining his financial involvement with Chinese investments in Ethiopia (his home country) were taken down. I wonder if this post will survive.

  48.  @Loady420  But that is the result of being both your parties being actually the same business party, with two departments. Other countries have a spread of political opinions. And Mr. Johnson - that was clear to me from the beginning - is only there to transfer the last few pennies wealth from the lower classes to the rich. He does not care about any people actually.

  49.  @reflexionesdelabiblia6711  thank, yep it is, but here it's about another subject.

  50.  @elsagrace3893  It is extremely important to identify the source No. 0. It is actually the most helpful single issue for finding a solution. So, it does not help Kerry personally in preparation, but hopefully mankind.
