COVID-19 deaths in Sweden top 4,000: Public Health Agency

The data published on the agency’s website showed that deaths from COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus, had risen to 4,029 from 3,998 a day earlier while the number of confirmed cases amounted to 33,843 up from 33,459.

Sweden has taken a soft-touch approach to fighting the virus, leaving most schools, shops and restaurants open and relying on voluntary measures focused on social distancing and good hygiene. Accumulated deaths in the pandemic in Sweden have been many times higher relative to the size of the population than in its Nordic neighbours, but still lower than in some hard-hit countries, such as Spain and Britain, that implemented strict lockdowns.

That's a big 4 such a small country.

wow, more deaths than California which has 3 times the population

But I thought they were supposed to be..........oh well.

Wow, 4000 deaths (I'm sure the most of them 'with covid'.)Shocking number, the 1/7 of the 2017-2018 influenza deaths in Germany

PHRASING!?!?!

I think you mean “deaths being reported as COVID19” top 4000 in Sweden. Big difference.

Unfortunately starting to pay the price, hope it works out well for them.

Sweden walked the right path… We the majority of the Swedes agrees on it. If you only stirr at the numbers, you'll fail to see the whole Picture!

Sweden did a very good job in finding the balance. Some people just like to see them fail. Those need a psychiatrist because of their narrow minded selfish view of the world. Fortunately for us, they locked themselves up in the house 🎉🎉

The UK did nothing for too long. Spain was among those hit earliest.

The media is totally invested in the shut down, If Sweden survives without it it will be devastating for them

What a disaster! Australia, deaths per million, 4. Sweden, 399. Game Over!

and the UK? what 36,000?

Sweden shall Conquer it.

Oh no like .0001%

Belgium deaths?

Do have a stat on total COVID19 U.S. fatalities *as a percent of total U.S. population in 1958. 1969 and 2020
