If you jump down to the Sweden section, you can see that Sweden reached zero excess mortality in the last part of June.
Excess mortality is a much better measure of than just looking at 'covid deaths' (whatever those are). It can show whether or not what a government counts as covid deaths or not are accounting for all of the unexpected deaths or not. It can also account for the fact that practically any decision made by the government to fight covid may have unintended consequences (more suicides due to isolation from lockdown).
