Is it one of the worse Corona places on the planet?
652 deaths per million places it at 24 place, well below italy, spain, uk, argentina, usa, brasil, france and even sweden.

IIRC the idea was to ensure that the hospital infrastructure must hold the pressure and from what I heard from family and friends, hospitals in switzerland did hold up just fine (unlike Italy) and the numbers seem to reflect that.
Now, I know that deaths is not the only metric as the side effects of corona in survivors might be a huge problems, but I'm not aware of any good indicator on how countries compare on that front. Possibly hospitalization efficiency can also affect likelihood of having non-fatal post-covid complications?
