The population of Norway is less dense.
In deaths per 1M people Sweden is 38th. In comparison:
28. Portugal
27. France
25. Spain
21. USA
20. UK
16. Italy
Norway had 3 deaths yesterday.
You’d prefer lockdowns and masks.
Let's compare
. | Sweden | Norway-Denmark |
Population | 10.23 million | 11 million |
Area | 450,295 sq km | 413,455 sq km |
Population density | 25/sq km | 27/sq km |
Total number of Covid deaths | 14,615 | 799+2,542 = 3,341 |
Covid deaths per million people | 1,438 | 583 |
The comparison of Sweden to Norway+Denmark makes more sense as they are similar in ethnicity, in area, in density (when combined N+d).
Both suffered the same economic downturn percentage but Sweden had 3 times the number of deaths/million as Norway+Denmark
