No? Relative to Denmark and Norway, they’re doing as bad as ever? (X4-x8 amount of daily deaths per capita)

  Current daily deaths in Sweden are averaging about 4 per day continuing to trend towards 0, vs the 0 or 1 per day in Denmark or Norway. If you're trying to argue that 0.38 per capita vs 0.05 per capita is relevant when the gross numbers are so low I'm not sure what to tell you to convince you otherwise.

(graph basically looks identical between per capita or raw, pick your poison). I'm not sure how you make a meaningful statistical difference between them at this point when the numbers are approaching rounding errors.

    You look over a longer period of time. Like 25x Denmark for the past month, where that includes a delay of up to 28 days for a death to be reported, and only a few days delay in Denmark.

Never mind COVID-19, that country picker that jankily reorders when you select something has to be eradicated.

  OWID's UI/UX is definitely not my favorite (try to highlight a particular country's line in a graph) but their worldwide data quality appears to be the best right now compared to alternatives.
