    As infections and ICU admissions rapidly rise in Sweden, the Swedish health leader, Anders Tegnell, says that the country does not need additional restrictions...

    Anders Tegnell: tougher restrictions not the right response to third Covid wave

    While at the same time desperately demanding that Society force people to follow COVID rules to stop the terrible third wave.


    ‘Society needs to help make people follow Covid rules’: Tegnell

    You know there is an entity called "government" which makes rules & restrictions for people to follow. You should use it.

    Do any of those links show that neighboring countries have a lower death count in the last month than Sweden had in a week, like you claimed?

    So it's close -- 115 deaths in Sweden in a week versus 124 over a month in neighboring countries combined. Very bad performance for Sweden on any basis.

    Correct...over the past month of the total deaths...

    Sweden's deaths has exceeded the total deaths of its neighboring countries (e.g. Denmark, Finland, Norway) for the past month.

    In contrast, the chart below shows the 7 day average of Covid deaths...Sweden still exceeding each of its neighboring countries even the total of them.

    That would indeed be a bad performance.

    Can you link to the source of your data? Third request.

    I have already provided all the Reuters articles over a week period showing all the registered COVID deaths announced by the Swedish government. You can also go to the Swedish government website to read their press releases with the same information in Swedish.

    Just how many times do I need to provide you with the information.

    As I already mentioned, several times now, I see that you have provided the numbers for Sweden. Where are the numbers for the neighboring countries you claim are less - and then amended were only slightly more.

    As stated directly in my post -- we are using YOUR numbers for the two other countries. Here is your text again.

    Finland, last month, deaths by COVID according to Worlometers: 86 if I counted correctly.
    Please feel free to verify.

    Norway, last month, deaths by COVID according to Worlometers: 38 if I counted correctly.
    Please feel free to verify.

    I never repost links nor explain why I will not repost info for someone acting like a troll.

    Yet, if the person has been polite...I may just tell them to review my post history and go look for the link if its that important to the person. :D

    Then again, if I see a common theme with the person doing such types of requests again and again...not only are they trolling but they are being an asswipe.

    This is a fucking forum...not the library nor someone's bitch.
