‘They are leading us to catastrophe’: Sweden’s coronavirus stoicism begins to jar
Tegnell...has the slightly exasperated tone of a man tired of repeating the obvious when asked what he thinks of the growing concern and calls for a city-wide quarantine of Stockholm, given the very recent spike in cases there. On Monday, Sweden said it had recorded 3,700 cases and 110 deaths.
“Yes, there has been an increase but it’s not traumatic so far. Of course, we’re going into a phase in the epidemic where we’ll see a lot more cases in the next few weeks, more people in the ICU, but that’s just like any other country – nowhere has been able to slow down the spread considerably.”

Mr Raab said today: “I can today announce a new arrangement from Government and airlines to fly home tens of thousands of people where commercial flights are no longer possible.
“The arrangements agreed today will provide a clearer basis to organise special charter flights where Britons find themselves stranded.
“Our priority will always be the most vulnerable.”
Already 150,000 have come back from Spain, 8,500 people have come back from Morroco, and 5,000 from Cyprus - showing the huge scale of the problem.
