Sweden's daily death toll and its number of new coronavirus cases both fell today as the country continues to hold out against imposing a lockdown.
The 77 new deaths - down from 106 yesterday - bring the total from 793 to 870, according to figures from Sweden's public health agency.
The number of confirmed infections went up by 544, a drop of nearly a quarter from yesterday's near-record figure of 722.
It takes the total number of cases from 9,141 to 9,685.
These figures will likely be used to pressure governments which have resorted to lockdowns to battle Covid-19 to lift the draconian restrictions.
More than 4,000 of the country's 9,685 confirmed cases are in the Stockholm area, according to official figures.
The government has also carried out random sampling which suggests that as many as 2.5 per cent of people in Stockholm have been infected.
That implies a higher figure of around 60,000 in the Stockholm region, suggesting that many people have had the virus without being added to the official count.
Unlike most of Europe, Sweden has not imposed a lockdown, and primary schools, shops, cafes, restaurants and bars remain open.

Sweden still seems to be not dying off...
And since that decision to cave their numbers have skyrocketed... Locking down was a mistake in every local that it has occurred. Watch Australia... 56 deaths and they only decided after a great deal of pressure to lock down last week... Watch as their death toll will now likely climb.
Does anyone who dies while positive or presumed positive count as a WuFlu death in Sweden?
If so, that will goose the death toll stats.
No, I do not think it was a mistake in Italy
They had a direct line to China.
Thats where Ive been getting my stats from. Including the ones I posted.
...Italy had 7 scheduled flights per week direct from Wahun, Iran also.
What do you think the death rate is going to be here in the US when they keep us locked down to the point of Great Depression II and then try to implement their china virus immunity patches/tattoos leading to Civil War II?
I can tell you right now, I'm fed up with this b*llshit already and will not be complying with any mark of the beast shenanigans.
You know, Trump went out of his way to cover for Fauci and Scarf Lady. I think he was sending them a signal.

A signal?
As summer goes into fall, the U.S. will see a wave of new infections. It will arrive in Europe also, but Sweden is achieving greater herd immunity NOW, and will be less affected by new waves of the virus.
Many in the U.S. “saved” from getting a mild infection so far, by all the lock downs, will start getting new infections in the fall and passing SOME of them AGAIN to those who are the ones who really need to be sheltered and isolated & protected - the elderly, infirm, those with conditions that become complications with the Wuhan virus (they, and those who are ill, are the ones who NEED masks most of all). Oh, that last part is what Sweden is doing while it’s economy is not closed. Also, Sweden’s younger students have not lost a school year, and there is no mass of Sweden’s kids among the Covid-19 cases.
Sweden is going to have crematories running 24/7 that can be seen from SPACE!
He was saying: "I've got your number."
Effective in doing what?
We're told this social distancing won't reduce the total number infected, just spread them out over time so medical facilities aren't overwhelmed. Are Swedish facilities overwhelmed?
You’re not really going to be able to judge this until the outbreak is over. Sweden’s strategy is intended to shorten the overall outbreak within their borders. Lockdowns trade-off a lower peak with a much longer duration. As long as your healthcare sector doesn’t collapse (a big ‘if’).
