I have an opinion to vent here ... :-) ...
 
1) Sweden is a very big country (a lot of people fail to notice that),
   therefor the population density of 25 people per square kilometer is in
   sharp contrast to my country where the density is 367 people per square
   kilometer. For that reason alone Sweden has a very very much lower
   reproduction ratio of the virus than any other country.
 
2) Sweden only counts deaths of people who previously tested positive for the
   virus. Those who presumable died because of the virus but were not tested
   yet are not counted.
 
3) Sweden does not count Covid19-deaths from nursing homes ...
 
4) There is no uniform counting way between several countries and because of
   this numbers are being kept low. If they were counted as they are in
   Belgium Sweden's numbers might like times-4 or -5.
 
5) I think it is very cruel to endanger an entire population for an
   experiment.
