Analysis: Is Sweden right in its handling of COVID-19? | Euronews

Comparably, the virus has been nearly ten times more deadly in Sweden, even though it has only twice the population. Yet, hospitals have not been overwhelmed; figures available from last week show capacity is running at 80 per cent and worst-case estimates around infection and death rates have simply not transpired.

That is not to say there isn t anger out there, particularly at a perceived lack of shielding of older people. More than a third of fatalities have been people living in care homes.
