Please note that UK and USA are full of 'lardies'.
Many people love vaping or smoking like it's their hobby. |

Not convinced by "key drivers". Many factors (diet; air cleanliness; who knows?) but one thing is obvious; we should NOT be trying to stop or slow the spread; we must get a vaccine and find cures or likewise treatment. And look at long tail effects & remedies. NOT lockdowns, social distancing, closing schools, killing employment. |

Quite agree. But population densities and proximity to others are clearly the key drivers; this seems a global trait for the virus.
Sweden backs this up, as do the recent infections in our universities. And Wyoming had just 50 deaths from 7,000 infections. |

Still a tiny amount; no fun for the dying but fewer than those dying from cancer or flu or sepsis - just another illness; nasty for the vulnerable especially those near death anyway. It makes no sense to behave as though the common cold is the black plague. |

Sweden's only city, with a population of over a million, has a death to infection rate of 10%.
Stockholm was considerably higher than the smaller cities and towns - as well as the vast rural areas. |
