California had some of the strongest lockdowns and stay-at-home orders of any state and they're still having ICU issues, meanwhile Florida is not? Tennessee has similar policies to Florida and they have high cases .. Sweden has meanwhile dropped to zero.

If you really look across the board at all countries, there is ZERO corroboration between any of these arbitrary measures and the results. It's all complete random superstition nonsense. COVID response is a new religions ideology, and ideology is "doing without knowing."

Also, why are ICU beds at capacity? Is it all COVID, or tons of people who didn't get the heart surgery they needed?

Your own experiences show that your family survived this and likely has long term immunity (and will continue to do so as long as they get exposed at regular intervals).

The alternate reality is that the virus is real, but the way we've reacted to it will kill more people in the long term. I wrote about this back in March, COVID19 is two diseases. The virus and our over-reaction to it: https://battlepenguin.com/philosophy/covid-19-is-two-disease...

Check out newer sources for that Sweden claim. They've both admitted that the strategy failed plus their measures are now at least equivalent to those of their neighbors.

Care to link a published study or a report from a reputable agency? Because it sounds like this is just your hunch.
