Sweden a Cornavirus Success

Timothy Birdnow

Sweden's death rate from Coronavirus has fallen almost to zero to the chagrine of the good media folks.

From Reuters:

Cases in the Nordic country have declined sharply over the past few days and on Tuesday only 283 new cases were recorded.

Much is made of Sweden's higher rates than other Nordic countries, while ignoring the fact Sweden has a much higher immigrant population AND has considerably more people in the geriatric generation and in nursing homes.

They admit:

Yet coronavirus deaths in Sweden have fallen dramatically in recent days, and are now approaching zero. Between June 30 and July 6, Sweden recorded fewer than five deaths per day on all days but one.

The decline in newly diagnosed cases has been even more dramatic. In late June, Sweden diagnosed more than 1,800 people per day as COVID-19 positive. Today, just two weeks later, only one-sixth of that number are testing positive on a daily basis.

On paper, Sweden suddenly looks like a stunning — albeit late-running — success. But experts are warning that their recent spell of good news does not mean the country's no-lockdown plan was successful, or that other countries should follow its path.

So, what has all this economic destruction and tyrannical medical slavery gotten us? Hmm?
