Mine works. Looks like cases are starting to subside although deaths are up which makes sense as a lagging indicator.

Sweden is a very socially responsible country, so the comparison isn't so good. They may not have shutdown but people behaved themselves. Also, the swedish elderly paid a high price and even the Swedes say too high. Search on the BBC for more articles.Well , look at Sweden:

If everyone pulled in the same direction, things would be under control sufficiently to be able to just quarantine the sick, exposed, and travelers which would be orders of magnitude less expensive. But, well, people are people.

Since you are very smart, can discern facts from fiction and you have a lot of time on your hands you may widen your research.
It has been clearly demonstrated by economic studies, that a lockdown or not implemented by governments had little consequences.
It was clear that people were motivated by fear.
People who lived in areas with a lot of infections and death regulated their activities regardless of government intervention.
People reduced contact with others as much as possible and stayed home, out of fear of infection and death,
Which was clearly seen in their area.
International and regional reduction in supply chains reduced economic production,
As did internal demand of products.
These effects on economies were the result of CV19 infections world wide and not results of of government actions.
Recent increases of CV19 may result in the return of fear and it's predictable results on economies.
Future government restrictions to keep the spread of CV19 somewhat under control and warnings of virologists,
May effect economies, but zero restrictions may also not benefit economic output.
It may be wise to try to slow down the spread of CV19
And governmental help to get economies going may be helpful.
The front line workers Doctors, Nurses and hospital support personal are the first to be affected and they know what is going on.
Let's hope they continue to be willing to put their lives in danger and help sick people.
CV19 shows clearly who is lying and what actions help people and which economies work best.
Lying and denial has zero effect on CV19, reality rules with clearly visible results.
Lobo, Slowing down the spread does help to not overload the medical system, so there is that.
It also tends to ruin the economy, keep children out of school, keep parents home watching the children and all those
other things social distancing does while flattening the curve and not eliminating the disease.
I have no solution to the overall problem, so I just stay home and hope that eventually there is something that reduces risk.

And if I had kids I love, I wouldn't want them to attend school at this time.
I would do home schooling.

My friends kids got the whole family sick 🤕 they recovered but wife is still with issues. If I had kids now I would be worried they bring it home
Agreed. Why take the risk if you can avoid it?My friends kids got the whole family sick 🤕 they recovered but wife is still with issues. If I had kids now I would be worried they bring it home
If only 5% get very sick, than with a family of 4 your now up to 16% of a serious illness in the family.
Take a whole elementary school and their families, then the probability approaches unity, 100%.
it depends on if you have at risk folks in your home. If no ancianos then I wouldn't worry about it. I'm hoping my 17 year old can go to school soon.

But their economy is not messed up.
All ages are at risk by varying degrees. Those risk start adding up as the social circle increases.
That said, I hear you. There are two, teenage boys in my house that are glued to their phones. I keep trying to set them up with home schooling, but I'm starting to think I'll need to get a printer and paper to print up assignments. Those phones are way too addictive.

So if my math is correct and the new govt doesn't change anything this new curfew extension expires on Sept. 3. Did I do the math correctly? Is that the same day as the S.O.E. expires? 20 + 25 = 45 days.
