Antibody tests from Sweden aren't very promising for those hoping for natural herd immunity. The article is in Swedish, but the key point is that only 7.3% of people in Stockholm were positive (the highest in the country). That represents the state of things in early April, though, so in theory it's higher than that now. Still, that's way lower than I was hoping for.

If you're using Georgia as an example, you should probably stop.
Georgia’s COVID-19 positive rate is higher than what state reports. https://www.ledger-enquirer.com/news...242831786.html A quick highlight that explains why their numbers are flawed is this.. Quote:

Anecdotal but if you want evidence that things are getting better than peep this..
A month ago NY and NJ would have already posted 800+ new deaths if not even more by now. Slowly those numbers got down to under 100-200. Now they haven't even posted any as of yet. If you have followed Worldometers regularly you would know this is a great sign as the deaths in the hottest spot in the country are slowing substantially. |

This suggests that it really is just social distancing (in their somewhat limited form) that is causing them to slow down. If they let up, they'll be essentially as vulnerable as everyone else, which means their high death rates (compared to their peers) haven't accomplished much. |

I was surprised after all the talk about how great Iceland did to see they had more cases per m than we do.
