Just a Hunter;
Good afternoon, thanks for the reply.
Holy smoke 2' of snow in June isn't nothing!
Over our lifetime we've kicked around a fair bit in the western states as far south a Colorado and have actually been to Glacier, MT at least once and I rather think twice? Like our Glacier National Park here in BC, it absolutely can snow any month of the year, still 2' isn't nothing is it?
The struggle I have with attempting to interpret the numbers coming from anywhere regarding the beer flu is both legion in origin and sometimes veracity too. That said there's not a whole pile I trust out of most legacy media anymore and "official government releases" even less.
For instance Italy got smashed early on, but they had a comparatively older population so that put that group into a higher co-morbidity or risk group - or that's my limited layman's understanding.
There does seem to be a difference in the way each strain has effected different groups too? Maybe?
When both of our Moms were in an extended care home, the annual flu would often result in quite a few deaths, so there's that as well.
Truly none of us are getting out of here alive as far as I can figure.
It does seem to me though that as you've suggested, we in Canada mishandled how we reacted to it as opposed to the approach Sweden took. Some might opine that PM Socks is mishandling it to this very moment and some saying that might be correct too.
Then too up here in BC the suicide and OD rate has skyrocketed. Is there a correlation between being locked down by all our branches of government and the rate of apparent despair, especially in younger men? Could be or surely looks like it.
To be clear for sure back to you, I'm a semi-old guy who did none of the research and my formal training had nothing to do with medical research, though I did create a pile of spread sheets and can say data can be manipulated to look almost any way the creator wants the numbers to come out. Other number people in that field will see it, but accountants and owners didn't....
All the best.
Dwayne
