I would like metrics that leave out the initial spike in Sweden from an unfortunate early spike in deaths from senior homes/care facilities. In a connected global economy it may be hard for a small country to shield itself from economic ripple effects, but I wonder if at least the excess deaths metrics would look significantly better without that early spike, so that we can talk about whether a smaller set of measures strike a better balance between freedoms and public safety. Another interesting angle to examine internationally is natural immunity. For example India had a large delta spike when the variant first appeared, and since then they have had a very low number of cases, and are transitioning to treating the virus as endemic. A recent sero survey found that 90% of people in Mumbai have antibodies (https://www.reuters.com/world/india/almost-90-people-indias-financial-capital-have-covid-19-antibodies-survey-2021-09-17/ https://www.reuters.com/world/india/almost-90-people-indias-...). Given the low infection fatality rate for those who are healthy and under 50, I wonder if that population should just go about their lives freely to develop natural immunity, which would then make it harder for everyone else to get infected.
