Sweden have had fewer infections than a lot of other regions. If longcovid is a problem, I would be more worried about places like New York and London.

I feel very strongly that all votes in all important elections should be counted by hand, and be open for anyone to observe the process (within reasonable limits on disruptive behavior). Not because of the possibility of voting machines bei

I find it very funny that four people independently wrote almost the exact same response to your question.

That is the logistics I'm talking about. Testing was incredibly slow to scale up last spring, and scaling up tests for antibodies as well seems like unnecessary complication. We need fewer moving parts, not more.

It is certainly of scientific interest to know these things. But I suspect the logistics of finding out who already have been infected, and only giving them one/zero doses, is not going to be worth it. And even then, only a small porti

The therapists obviously knew about it, and it is considered perfectly normal (and a good thing) by the general population. It's not possible to opt-out anyways. The principle that all (non-classified) official records should be public

I have never gotten the point of this trick. Don't basically all processors have some equivalent of XCHG (swap contents of two registers)? Even the 8086 had it back in 1978. (The z80 doesn't have it, but it is a couple of years ol

The article says that you should check blood pressure and blood sugar every 5 years. And blood fats "some time". But that's very different from a regular check up.

The reason Sweden doesn't do regular health checks of the population is because there is no good scientific evidence that it has any effect. And that if a person feels healthy, they most likely are. I think the similar reasoning is use

Nobody lives in the vast forests in Sweden. The population density of Denmark would only be 2 people/km^2 if Greenland was included. The urbanization is, however, pretty similar, but Stockholm is still much larger than Copenhagen. I&#x

The corona commission has not yet made any conclusions regarding whether lockdown or not lockdown was the right decision, that will (maybe) come later. So I don't really know how your article is relevant to that. The government and the

The news about a change in "the Swedish strategy" has been greatly exaggerated in foreign media. The rules are basically the same as in April. Only main difference is 8 people instead of 50 in public gatherings. I can still arrang

I also live in Sweden, and all pictures I send to my parents or grandparents are over MMS (the rest are on Facebook messenger or telegram). It is simply the most convenient way if you only have someone's phone number. Might be a cultur

According to YouGov the latest numbers are 9% wearing masks when in public, it has become a bit higher lately (was 7% just a couple of weeks ago). But I think 9% is far too high. I very rarely encounter a mask while taking a walk in the cit

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but Sweden has never had "fully closed borders". They have been closed for countries outside of the EU, but that was only to conform with the rest of the union. No borders were closed for publi

On Tuesday, at the press conference, they said that it was 0 in September as well. The more detailed report is published next week.

If I recall correctly the US passed Sweden in excess mortality sometime in June/July. So they have probably passed some of the other European countries already. I couldn't find a good up to date source, but Belgium seems to have l

It might, however, protect against infection by a related, worse virus. As well as it often being safer to be infected earlier in life than later on (which requires a fair amount of spread along children). There is a related hygiene hypothe

I think most people who are worried about secondary effects from lockdowns don't think that these will be visible immediately during the pandemic. But rather as a higher baseline of mortality in the coming years. This is just my guess.

Just for some perspective: during the 2017/18 season 2822 people died from the flu in Denmark. https://www.ssi.dk/aktuelt/nyheder/2020/influenzasasonen-201...

Sweden has 5x deaths of Germany. Not quite an order of magnitude. And as someone else pointed out, the US has more deaths per capita than Sweden.

It sounds a lot like Pratt parsing, or at least the way I usually implement it. But I don't what paper he is referring to.

That sounds like a pretty standard STM (scanning tunneling microscope). They had a couple of those at the university I went to. We had to cut the tips ourselves with pliers, which was a quite annoying process as you couldn't see if the

The death rate is clearly not growing exponentially. Try switching the scale to logarithmic in your link. It's basically linear right now based on some other graphs I've seen, but it's hard to tell due to reporting delays. Si

They count all deaths with a laboratory confirmed COVID19. Basically comparing the list of deaths with the list of diagnoses. Of course you still miss people that don't get tested before death. About 10% if recent investigations by Soc

I also tried checking the statistics, i.e. SCB deaths - FoHM deaths and found no big deviation from the 2015-2019 mean. Both data from the official excel sheets.

I don't see anything in that article saying that there is a significant under-reporting (only that there is an above average number of deaths, which is expected). Since FoHM and SCB use the exact same register (where FoHM just filters

I might be wrong here, but I think that the first one is a declaration of a guard with the name m using the default constructor. The same way that int (a); and int a; are equivalent. So the guard should remain until end of scope, but wo

I recently read about Rubi, which instead uses a huge decision tree and pattern matching to do symbolic integration. Kind of like how humans do it. There are a lot of interesting thoughts on their website, I would highly recommend checking
