Looking at European flight statistics [1], Portugal looks to have ~3x as many passengers flying to/from Italy than Sweden does, with a similar population. From that, it seems reasonable to expect that Sweden would have an easier time of things, at least in the beginning stages.

- odshoifsdhfs 7y agoIt may be the reason, or even that in PT personal space is measured in cms vs meters (part jokingly), too many variables. But taking in account the supposed 'exponential' growth of the virus, we should have seen a more aggressive curve in Sweden vs Portugal if the lockdowns were the solution. (I am personally against the lockdowns as they were implemented as I think long term they ill do more harm than good, but I'm trying to keep my biases from these discussions and use impartial data sources)
