I never said those countries are "back to normal", you're misquoting me. I meant to say they are going back to work. Further compound that by countries like Sweden that are business as usual

You don't need a source. You already know it will lead to higher unemployment since pandemic -> everyone staying home -> businesses halted -> people losing their jobs (although the market has judged this as ephemeral)

Oh, so when I asked if people were "going to go back to work like nothing happened", and you replied "Ackchyually, Asian countries are going back to work" you deliberately left out the "like nothing happened" part, and are now agreeing that it's not "back to normal"? Got it.

>Further compound that by countries like Sweden that are business as usual

Not true.

>You already know it will lead to higher unemployment since pandemic -> everyone staying home ->

In what other pandemics did everyone stay home and unemployment went way up?

I have no idea what kind of straw man argument you're trying to make anymore other than I think you're looking to pick a fight by being pedantic about words. So I'll just leave it at that.

It’s not “business as usual” in Sweden. Many are now questioning their approach.
