COVID-911: From Homeland Security To Biosecurity

Corbett: 9/11, as we were told repeatedly in the days, weeks, and months after the attack, was the day that changed everything. And now a new event has come along to once again throw the world into chaos. But whereas the post-9/11 era introduced America to the concept of homeland security, the COVID-19 era is introducing the world to an altogether more abstract concept: biosecurity.

"It's Like Using A Hammer To Kill A Fly" - Architect Of Sweden's COVID-19 Anti-Lockdown Strategy Vindicated

'Tegnell was ahead of the curve once again.'
By Tyler Durden: When the history books are written about 2020 and the great coronavirus pandemic, Anders Tegnell, the humble Swedish state epidemiologist and architect of the global-consensus-defying 'Sweden strategy', will inevitably loom large throughout the text. But whether he is portrayed as a hero or villain may - like so many things in this highly polarized era - ultimately depend on who's writing the piece.
As the FT explained in its latest in a series of interviews with Tegnell, the American press - thanks in large part to its newfound fanatical  devotion to the cause of "science" - including the NYT, has been particularly hard on Tegnell. The Gray Lady has called Sweden a "pariah state" and "the world's cautionary tale."
European papers have been somewhat more forgiving. That's perhaps because the lockdowns imposed across Europe were far more restrictive than what most, outside NYC, experienced in the US. And despite all that work, new daily cases are back to seeing record highs in France, and post-lockdown highs in Spain, while cases climb in Italy, the UK, Germany and across Central Europe into Ukraine.
But sure enough, there's one European nation where cases haven't been showing a "second wave": Sweden.
