So far Sweden has 5700 excess deaths in 2020 (pop 10m) compared to the last few years according to the FT. For the US that figure is 277k (pop 325m). https://www.ft.com/content/a2901ce8-5eb7-4633-b89c-cbdf5b386938 https://www.ft.com/content/a2901ce8-5eb7-4633-b89c-cbdf5b386... It’s very hard to say which strategies will be the best at this point in the pandemic, but it is easy to see the worst failures from the excess death figures, like the US, Peru, and a few European countries where the epidemic got out of control initially. Sweden has not done terribly, but this chart and headline is grossly misleading as it attempts to compare an incomplete year to other full years.
