    The last time I checked their mortality rate was double that of the US.

      Seems like what partially went wrong in Sweden was some sort of an edict or advisory to not send elderly from care facilities to actual hospitals or other places with ventilators. Similar to the excess deaths we've seen in America from people fearing going to the hospital for heart conditions or strokes, except much worse. Ignorance (ie: "it's the black plague") about Covid early on led to hospital avoidance.

        It was always comical to me that anyone would follow or advocate Sweden's lead on medical matters.

          I guess these two are a bit more connected now - Several news agencies reporting Floyd tested positive for COVID-19 posthumously.

          Obviously I'm not saying that changes the cause of death at all - they say he was asymptomatic anyway.

            I really haven't liked Sweden since EA DICE in Sweden ****ed up the Battlefield franchise so I'm instantly skeptical of anything they do.

              Hundreds expected at Floyd's funeral. Meanwhile, other people who have lost loved ones were only allowed ten.

              The hypocrisy is alarming.

                  You do know it wasn't just white people that has died of COVID, right?

                  I just like consistency in policy. That's all. If you only agree with exceptions when it fits your narrative, then you were never for equality in the first place.

                    Then you're going to love reading up on why exactly people are marching, protesting, and a mass amount of people will be at George Floyd's funeral. There's like 400 years of material there for you.

                      I don't care how many people are at his funeral. There shouldn't be restrictions at funerals. That's my point. These exceptions in policy are hypocritical. And I agree. There are 400 years of hypocrisy in policy. But that doesn't make this one right.

                      If COVID is as dangerous as these people have been saying it is for the past months, it doesn't care what morality or stance you have on any issue.

                        Then simply state your point and don't bring other comparisons in to muddy things up. I'm not sure how you think your posts are going over, but its definitely signaling something to us.

                          How is my original post racist? I was comparing his funeral to thousands of others. White, black, asian, jew etc. etc. And then I said the hypocrisy to the policy was hypocritical.

                          I mean, I apologize if it was misinterpreted, but I'm not sure how I could have put it any more simplistic.

                            A lot of people will see it as PeoplesChampGB sees it. It was heading already that way but it will accelerate the erosion of the public's patience will the lockdown measures.

                            If there is a second wave of COVID-19, due to re-opening too soon, due to spreading by protestors or a combination of some sorts, some people are going to say "**** it with the lockdown" (I understand some already did that from the very beginning) even if it is just out of spite.

                              I don't care if people are in the streets protesting, or businesses are open, or whatever as long as people are using precautions.

                              I care about the government (federal, state, local) shaking their finger at one side and welcoming the other side.

                                Ironically that was the point of the protests lmao. I also think you’re dramatizing the backlash against the reopen protests, people ridiculed them but a lot of them went on without issue, it wasn’t just some government crackdown.
