Sorry, I don' t buy any crystal ball argument.
> Where do you even get this sort of anti-science nonsense from
From science.

Likewise. No matter how you try to slice it, the numbers for COVID-19 are not significantly different than for seasonal flu.
> It would be like debunking a flat-earther, how do you even debunk someone who says things that arent even close to the reality of the situation?
I don't know. How can I convince you the sky is NOT falling?
I can't. No matter what data or peer reviewed studies I show you, they'll all be wrong. Summarily. No science provided, simply flat earther ad hominem.
We do agree on one thing. Rational discussion on this topic seems a bit out of reach.
@freemo
Oh that's easy. Sweden.
🇳🇱
@sda Nope wrong, sweden enacted social distancing, though a relaxed form from other countries. They are required to keep arms length apart or farther, and all establishments are required to enforce this (though otherwise remain open). this required, for examples, tables to be spaces out farther than usual. In addition high schools were closed and gatherings of 50 people or more banned entirely..
Want to take a second try? Perhaps you should try doing some research about the opinions you hold?
@sda
Still waiting to hear of a country which didnt enact quarantine or social distancing and also didnt expiernce an overload in ICU capacity...
Funny how the one point asked of you that could prove your point and you got nothing. Would be pretty trivial to prove your case in fact.
As stated every exampled where social distancing was not enacted or enforced until much later **did** expiernce an over-capacity situation.. it would be just as trivial to show the inverse if your really think its just "pollution" as you suggested earlier. Convient how pollution tends to correlate with population density, which is exactly the condition you need for a very rapid spread of a disease. But yea i guess it was just the pollution huh ::rolls eyes::
Its trivial to prove your point, yet you can't, and plenty of evidence to the contrary.
I repeat, can you name an area which did not enact quarintine or social distancing measures and didnt see an overload in ICU... nope
