Sweden continues to prove that our lockdowns were, and are, a very costly mistake (I say "and are" because some states, all of them governed by Democrats, are still under substantial lockdown restrictions). During the last 3 months, Sweden has had only 198 COVID-19 deaths, around 2 per day. If Sweden's population were scaled to our population size, that would be 6,406 deaths in 3 months, whereas we have had 80,677 deaths in the last 3 months. So if Sweden had America's population size, her number of COVID-19 deaths would be 12 times lower than ours for the last 3 months (6,406 vs. 80,677).
EXCERPT: "During the last three months from July 27 to Oct. 27, Sweden suffered 198 deaths, around two per day. To put that in perspective, the average number of cancer deaths during that same period in Sweden is 6,000.
"If Sweden's population of 10.23 million were scaled up to the U.K.'s size, that would be the equivalent of 1,290 deaths, whereas the U.K. actually suffered 4,540 deaths (over three times as many) during that time. The U.S. equivalent of Sweden's number would be 6,406, whereas there were 80,677 U.S. deaths, which is over twelve times as many."

As new lockdowns are ordered across Europe, Swedish COVID death rate has fallen sharply
"What we see right now is a rapid fall in the number of cases, and of course some kind of immunity has to be involved in that as nothing else has changed," says Sweden's coronavirus response czar, State Epidemiologist Anders Tegnell.
