presuming this is correct, this is truly striking data.

it shows how much the incredibly inclusive swedish covid death counting (any death from any reason within 30 days of + diagnosis) affected the numbers.

5813 reported. only 872 as direct cause. https://twitter.com/jhnhellstrom/status/1301073768748593153
i want to be clear that i have not checked this myself yet (but will try to do so) but this explains a GREAT DEAL and provides the direct proof of an issue many of us have been coming at circumstantially.

sewden's all cause deaths were not high relative to peers or to historical

it was just this:
they got the same R curve on deaths as other countries as well despite totally different distancing.

none of the NPI's have worked in covid.
is this the smoking gun that sweden was a massive success that has been misunderstood because of how they counted covid deaths?

if it holds, i think it is.

this warrants a great deal more attention.

if it's correct, the argument over which policy was better is over.
