The restrictions in Sweden (many still voluntary) are considerably more extensive than described here, and their case curve still (4/10/20) is looking pretty brutal. Unless they have a lot more ICU's per capita than most of Europe, they may be in trouble. Also concerning is the shortage of PPE:

The National Board of Health and Welfare ('Socialstyrelsen') confirmed that there is no preparedness storage and nothing to distribute to the health care sector

Sweden does have the advantage of, most likely, a generally more disciplined population than the US. And, at least in Stockholm, the posted article says 50% of the population is said to be working from home. I doubt we could do that in most (if any) US cities.
