US COVID deaths: 55, 417
In 330M people

Sweden deaths: 2,274
In 10M people

If Sweden had the population of the US, they would have 75,042 deaths.

40% more.

Or maybe trading human lives for livelihoods.

It could just be respect for nature and the inevitable truth.

Waiting for a good treatment or a vaccine is a fools errand.

Anybody know if they are doing testing, contact tracing, and quarantine?
