Show us the fault free studies lol.

All of these scientists with their categorical statements dropping out of the woodwork lol.
Prove—with science, that herd immunity has been excluded in Sweden.
Posters have already posted that.

Viruses lack the ability to get bored and quit, so they never get done trying to do the sole thing they try to do. That is why we need defenses against them.
Japan worked hard on contact tracing to block the virus. They wear masks militantly, and do not even get me started on how well they obey social distancing. None of this encourages herd immunity, but it does act to block the virus.
Given that it is proven that people can get Covid-19 twice, there are questions whether infections confer immunity for long.
And given that you want to confer herd immunity to stop infections, it is sort of pointless to spread the disease to stop the disease.

You’re as confused as ever, Alt Walt lol.
Anecdotal evidence of repeat infections—is anecdotal evidence, and well short of ‘proof’. Given the ridiculously high rate of false positives with PCR tests, it’s more likely a case of being labeled positive the first time—when they weren’t actually positive.
And without herd immunity there is no ‘stopping the disease’; how do you think vaccines work?
Lockdowns, masks etc don’t stop anything: they only suppress the rate of infection *temporarily*. To whatever extent they are effective at that.
Nope. The sources have been posted so many times in those threads that anyone can throw a dart and it will likely hit on one.
Nope.
So present evidence.
You make two claims sans evidence.
Have at it sport.
There is ample evidence presented on this very board, video in some cases, that masks do virtually nothing while a country is showing the way on the herd.
It has been proven. We really do not have time for your nonsense.

A doctor blowing vape smoke through his mask does not constitute a proof.
It only demonstrates that very small particles go right through it lol.

You do not know what worked in Japan. Some suggest they had a historical immunity from earlier viruses. Others suggest Japan's normal use of masks was the reason they were spared the worst of it.
