sweden and covid

sweden did very little to try to stop covid. they did not lock down, they did not wear masks, they closed few businesses, they left most schools open, undistanced, in person, and unmaksed.
many have endlessly screamed that “well look at the covid deaths! it was a disaster!” but here’s the thing: it wasn’t.
sweden has one of the most aggressive covid counting methodologies in the world. they tested a lot and then called any death for any reason within 30 days of a positive covid test a covid death.
get sick, recover, get hit by a bus? covid death
test positive, have no symptoms, die of a drug overdose? covid death.
die of cancer in hospital, test positive for trace covid? covid death.
you get the picture.
this definitional issue has made it very hard to compare to other places.
but even with this huge definitional issue, they outperformed the US, especially since last summer.
