By the time that this virus gets to similar levels in India, Indonesia, Philippines, Africa then the country ranking will be significantly different.
A population comparison isnt the best as it clearly has affected Europe as the 2nd wave, the 3rd wave is UK and USA, with a few more waves to come.
Still the number of deaths/cases in Sweden is a cause for concern due to their approach.
The Swedes were perhaps hoping that patient tracking would be more effective due to geographical distance combined with voluntary distancing.
As they don't use the Euro and have their own currency, their economy would be susceptible and at a high risk of recession.
Agreed it has been a high-risk approach.
I have an ex-GF who is a nurse in Stockholm. I like the country a lot, so I hope like hell that they avoid the worst.
