No, In Sweden 1144 out of every million people have died [0], which equates to 1 out of every 874 people.
Does 1 out of 874 people dead, mostly elderly and/or with comorbidities, sound bad?
Picture a room with 874 people. That's a lot of people. Ask 1 person to leave. Is that a disaster for society?

- outside1234 6y agoI think the answer to that is: “Are you the one person?”
- mikem170 6y agoThat's a personal disaster, but not a disaster for society.
- papaf 6y agoYes it is. Once hospitals fill and no longer function you are living in a society without healthcare.
- MrRiddle 6y agoAnd, at least in my country, that's not the fault of the virus, but politicians who didn't invest in healthcare not even remotely enough. Here we were hit hard by virus, however we never had more than 10k people hospitalized. If we, as a country of 7 million have a problem with this weak virus, what would happen if it were couple times stronger. People should be outraged with how healthcare failed, but media and politics are reporting about the virus like it's a plague, just so they can cover their asses.
