Ahem, do you know anything about Mercator projection.

I'm surprised you do, Paphitis... but Europe is bigger and much of Australia is barren desert.

I see Sweden has slumped to 10th place in the 'Deaths Per 1M Pop' League towards the end of the season....

...Probably going to 11 in the next day or so behind the Big Lockdown countries...

A HUGE disappointment for the Lockdown Bedwetters...

Oh and it looks like the 'Weekend Effect' of daily deaths continues from August with the trend still downwards...

Oh and CoCo, I see The £ is still not worth less than the €...

So, CyprusGrump is right, right and right again then!

At the rate Sweden is going by not reporting any numbers for the last several weeks to John Hopkins data, they will eventually become become number 202!

He was wrong about Robovac.

Oh it ain’t barren. Enough resources for the next 500 years plus we have more water in the northern parts to flood all of Europe at once.

The plans are for massive Ord River and Cape York pipelines. These areas get 2500 mm of rain every year. That’s about 8 to 9 times the annual rainfall of Cyprus.

Plus, our pastoralists pretty much farm anywhere these days. In fact the best beef is located right in the outback because that’s where the best feed is found so those animals get a premium price on the market.

Put it this way, Cyprus is a lot more barren.

Keeping Schools Open in Sweden Resulted in Zero Deaths

he world should have followed Sweden’s example. That country never locked down and has even kept children under 16 in school the entire time. As Reuters reported on July 15th, the number of Swedish children between one and 19 years of age who have died of COVID-19 is zero. And the percentage of children who contracted the illness was the exact same in Sweden as it was in Finland, which locked down its schools.

As regards teachers, Sweden’s Public Health Agency reported that “a comparison of the incidence of COVID-19 in different professions suggested no increased risk for teachers”. Nevertheless, with few exceptions, teachers in Los Angeles and elsewhere refuse to enter a classroom that has students in it. Their disdain for their profession has been superseded only by that of the Los Angeles teachers union, which announced that teachers will not resume teaching until the police are defunded.

People who defend lockdowns and closing schools point out that Sweden has the eighth-highest death rate per million in the Western world. But, needless to say, this has no bearing at all on the issue of whether Sweden was right to keep schools open or whether our country was wrong to close them, let alone keep them closed now. The overwhelming majority of deaths from COVID-19 in Sweden were among people over 70 years of age, and most of those were people over 80 and with compromised immune systems.

Reuters reported that three separate studies, including one by UNICEF, “showed that Swedish children fared better than children in other countries during the pandemic, both in terms of education and mental health”.

For more than a month, Sweden has had almost no deaths from COVID-19 while the entire society remains open and almost no one wears masks. (In Holland, too, almost no one wears masks.) For all intents and purposes, the virus is over in Sweden.

CRG. Well, you know, it was a rhetorical thing. Are you related to Erolz?

Anyway, it’s a pretty big country. Although when flying around we referred to the vast majority of it as the GAFA. The Great Australian Fuck All.

It's a pretty beautiful country.

I am getting ready to do some outback touring with the fam over the next 12 months as I reckon that's the only holiday I will be able to go on in that time. Can't go to North America, can't go to Europe, no UAE (I adore the UAE and stay there for a week every time I go to Cyprus) no Greece and no Cyprus the way things are at the moment.

So I'm getting my 4WD kitted out for some pretty big adventures around Australia.

Lot's of camping fun.

I think this year many citizens are staying at home for their holidays, and why not.

It’s really funny how many travel thousands of miles to come to our country to see what we can offer them, and yet many of us travel thousands of miles to see other parts of the world when we have only seen very little of our own country.

This pandemic has changed the traveling lifestyle and may remain that way for a long time to come.

Misses and I have been making more day trips lately here in Switzerland. For next week we were planning going canoeing in France again as we did recently at the Ardèche, but due to increased numbers in Covid there, it is very possible it will join Spain being on Switzerland’s quarantined list, which we must do 10 days at home upon returning. No thanks.

So, instead we will either spend a week in the Italian part of Switzerland or take a short flight to Sardinia for more sun, since Italy’s Covid numbers are doing better per 100,000 than here at home at the moment.

Things are not good in Australia.

And I’m not talking about COVID either which is under control and being managed.

Right now, Sweden and Switzerland is a paradise. I’m sure most Viktorians would think Sweden is paradise right now.
