Coronavirus: Man behind Sweden's controversial coronavirus strategy admits mistakes

He told Swedish radio on Wednesday:"If we were to run into the same disease, knowing exactly what we know about it today, I think we would end up doing something in between what Sweden did and what the rest of the world has done.Anders Tegnell said the country 'could have done better' in tackling coronavirus

Mr Tegnell said it was hard to know which measures taken elsewhere might have been the most effective in Sweden."And then maybe we will get some kind of information on what, in addition to what we did, we could do without adopting a total lockdown." He also told the Aftonbladet daily that the overall strategy of limiting the disease while also protecting workers and companies had been the right one.

Mr Hallengren also said the no government or public health agency has results yet of what the best strategy would have been during the pandemic.
