Interesting data from Sweden. They went herd immunity instead of shelter


Sweden % cases to population .16% and % death to population .019% This is with people still out and about with a few guidelines. And scientists estimate up to 25% population in the major cities now immune and herd immunity will be achieved in weeks

US % cases to population .2% and % death to population .013% This is with stay home basically shutting down and causing economic hardships

Numbers seem basically similar. Would have assumed % in Sweden would be significantly higher

IMO at the end of this Sweden's decision to go against conventional wisdom may be seen as the right move .

I will add it appears their testing is higher and more organized. That seems to be an important aspect .
