Sweden is going into partial lockdown even though everyone on here has been claiming they achieved "herd immunity" months ago. Huh. That's a head scratcher.

Fake information, Sweden is not going into any partial lockdown. The second wave of virus has already rolled over there, which is what you would expect from herd immunity. The increase is due to testing now, vs in the earlier part of the year.

Wow, deaths spike a single digit number, and then went down again during a seasonal virus, I'm totally and completely shocked.

BTW, here is a mask study https://academic.oup.com/cid/advance...searchresult=1

Yeah, that new climb in deaths is absolute proof "the second wave has rolled over there" and a validation of herd immunity...

Clearly you don't know what herd immunity is, it does not mean zero infections/deaths.

The mask study is in a clinical setting. Rate of infection among surgical mask wearers is 13.1%, for people who don't wear a mask at all, 17.5%. ~4% among trained professionals in PPE use. What do you think it is in the general population, 1% is probably extremely generous.

I will say, it does look like wearing an N95 mask is important. Wearing an 95 mask reduced the severity of infection by half, surgical masks did not offer any protection to the wearer.

Nietzsche said it best:

I remember in the before times, when no one ever died.

You might find wearing a mask less offensive if you brushed your teeth every once in a while.
