Sweden is the least fat Western nation and one of the healthiest nations in the world with the lowest comorbidities for Covid-19.

It should have one of the lowest fatality rates in the world for Covid-19. Yet it has the second highest in Europe after Belgium excluding micronations.

Excluding micronations Sweden has the 11th highest Covid-19 fatality rate in the world.

Sweden isn’t proof that lockdowns and mask don’t work. It is the opposite.

And also after Spain, Italy, and the UK, which are not micronations.

We are not looking at the same data. Sweden did well doing nothing.

Old data. Spain, UK and Spain are now all worse than Sweden and France most likely will pass Sweden at some point.

And isn't that the whole point of the herd immunity argument.

As time goes on, nations that shutdown will spike again, while Sweden, a nation that didn't shutdown, won't.
