Jimmy, I guess it depend on how you define success.
Any country that went into lockdown automatically trashed their economy.
Put their population into hock if you like.
Sweden did not do that.
They carried on almost normally.
People were allowed to take responsibility for their actions and I know that their population is a lot smaller but in my mind they dealt with the virus by allowing people to be exposed to other things.

Right now there is a rise in figures...and this is all over.
Here the flu and pneumonia deaths have ceased to be recorded.....and I was asking an ex colleague why she thought this was the case.....she told me that any respiratory deaths were now being added to the Covid stats.
Now I cannot prove that this is happening....I certainly cannot say it is happening all over the country, but I am sceptical of the stats anyway....stats (as I am sure you know) can be manipulated to show what the person commissioning wants them to show.

I think maybe the exception to this is ONS stats

Looking at what we have been expected to swallow in regard to statistics, there has been a bit of back pedalling going on.

I know a number of people who have tested positive....none have gone on to develop any illness....the counting of tests in the absence of symptoms and counting them as cases is the biggest hoax.
It is designed to keep the population compliant while our economy goes to the dogs and we rack up a debt that will take as long to pay off as the debt for World War Two.
Austerity.....we think we experienced austerity.....we will know what austerity is when the reckoning comes....though maybe I will be circling in the ether by then.
