Total deaths, Normalized by population, Sweden is in the top 5 (worst) countries. USA is 430/million, Sweden is 540/million.

Yea but if Sweden has basically “topped out” and everyone else’s death counts continue to climb (they will) who will have had the right approach by the time all is said and done? That’s the real question.
Predicting the winner of a marathon by who’s ahead at Mile 7 is not going to be very accurate... |
Washington State, again total deaths normalized by population, is 192 deaths/million. 1/2 US average, 35% Sweden.
|
Can't compare two different demographics, Sweden has an older population, on death rates. Cases, yes.
WA is still not done yet. |

Based on Island’s graph I’d expect that curve to level off within the next few days... if very few new instances are being reported (what I mean by topped out”) as per that graph then the deaths per 1M is going to climb for other nations while Sweden’s curve goes flat or even decreases some (accounting for gradual net population increase)

And the State of NY took all kinds of drastic measures. Sweden did not. Now I'm not trying to be down on NY, but rather point out that any region can get hit particularly hard. Again, 1,679/million vs Sweden is 540/million - If you think that you can claim that Sweden did it wrong, just look at their death per million without then saying NY State did it wrong, just look at their death per million. all the while knowing that NY State had anti-social distancing and school closures and business closures and mask wearing... (like so many other States)then you are missing the relevance, or lack thereof. |
My info is from https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries (a University of Washington creation)
|
Worldometer is not a UW creation. You are thinking of IHME
|
Charts I posted above wereby normalized by population.
Yes, NY & NJ much worse. If this was PARF, I'd be happy to discuss why....... |

This thing is far from over. Check back in 2024 to see how Sweden fared compared with the ROW both in terms of Covid and their economy. Currently both the USA and Sweden are projected to have approximately -6% growth in GDP though 2020. These numbers are also very fluid. Check back in 2024...

Will see if Sweden has a second wave that is less severe than is predicted for other countries. |

Sweden's expected growth, or lack thereof, is centered about their trading partners camping in a covid cower. BUT, the Swedes are out living life. --not everything is about GDP. Meanwhile, the States pretend that wearing bandanas and closing schools parks and businesses will be the answer. |

So, RSBob... Did ya see Eric's post? http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1595566941.png Are you still sticking with "what an utter failure there[sic / Sweden's] approach turned out to be" ? |
