Like Texas, Sweden didn't take social distancing seriously

I hope the head of the Swedish CDC and the prime minister get Covid19 and die.
Die alone, without their family, desperate and gasping for air and not even get a proper burial. Throw their bodies quickly to be cremated.

May they suffer what they have unleashed upon others.
Since they are culling and mass murdering the old and weak, get first in line.

 

Umm that's a bit much. Calm down.

 

Yeah Texas needs to be more like New York, Florida, Louisiana etc

 

I don’t know what part of Texas you live in, but where I live people are taking social distancing very seriously.

 

We shouldn't even be talking about Texas as TEXAS. Houston, Austin, San Antonio, WBCS, etc... need to operate independently from places like... Clyde, TX. And then you have Dallas which should be doing whatever it is Oklahoma wants them to do.

Turner needs to stand strong and act rationally.

 

absolutely . I was a fan of how Turner responded to Harvey , but this might be a different beast entirely for him .

 

How are New York, Florida, and Louisiana alike?

New York has a super dense population that is prime for spreading a virus and very difficult to avoid it. They did start implementing strict social distancing, and they are starting to flatten the curve. Florida has been one of the most reticent to implement social distancing, has a far less dense population spread. Louisiana has a wider spread of population. The Federal government has been restricting supply of tests and supplies to New York and allowing a much freer flow of supplies and tests to Florida.

So how are the ones you mentioned similar except that they all have large numbers of tourists visiting their cities?

 

They’re all similar bc they all suck at social distancing and Texas should be more like them according to this thread

 

Kill them! Rape them! Then smash their heads in LIKE THIS.

 

Texas has one of the lowest COVID deaths per million in the country (15-20 deaths per million people)

The idea that they didn't mitigate enough is absurd.

 

Texas - 453 deaths (population: 29 million)

Maybe all of these countries should just do whatever Texas is doing?

 

TX social distancing mandate is nothing like Sweden. Get your facts straight.

 

Do you live in Texas?

 

I think @malakas lives in Greece. It sounds like she is having a very bad day; she's often been fairly on the ball during all this stuff, though understandably upset about it.

I'm no fan of Texas's governor but it sounds like TX has played it pretty well so far. And also, I hope, the heat is a mitigating factor with this virus. Fingers crossed, but the heat hasn't helped Ecuador very much:

I haven't looked up what's happening in Sweden but I know they had a more relaxed approach to start with.

 

It’s @Senator OP

Sweden is basically under voluntary social distancing. Nothing is closed and there is a ban on gathering larger than 50.

As for TX, every single major cities mandated social distancing before the gov.

 

sweden is actually middle of the pack for europe for deaths (per capita) so far

 

high schools and universities have been closed the past month

 

the measure would be how many since the 20th death, right? Then you'd compare week-by-week to others, from equal starting point. I think their first death was March 11th, because they're more isolated.
