That's patently false.
Everyone compares countries all the time.
You literally just did it a few posts up by comparing it to other Scandinavian countries which are all different from Sweden.
Covid zealots compare other countries to New Zealand when it's convenient.
All with different cultures climate population density etc.
If what you're saying is true then you can't make any claims about any country's success rate because they're all unique.
You're just selecting Sweden as incomparable because it doesn't fit your narrative.
- sofixa 6y agoScandinavian countries have similar cultures, population densities, climates, customs ( e.g. people don't kiss on the cheek when they meet, which is what French people used to do pre-pandemic). They're more comparable between themselves than with Spain, with an entirely different climate, people living much closer together, etc. New Zealand are isolated by water from everyone, lockdown is drastically easier in that case.
- nickthemagicman 6y agoSwedes are European and share as much in common with Europeans as they do with other Scandinavian countries. Comparing Sweden to other European countries is a perfectly valid comparison. You're cherry picking and choosing cultural aspects and labeling it as 'unquestionable fact' with no scientific evidence. Classic Covid zealot move. As a matter of fact, we're all human beings that like to congregate together and eat out and go to bars and coffee shops and see live music, and our biological drives have way more significance than anything cultural . It's extremely disingenuous.
