[legulere]

I have lived in Sweden, and see why people living there would believe that Sweden’s policy is normal. But it’s not. It’s not only killing Sweden’s population but also recklessly endangers the rest of the EU. I really hope borders stay closed towards Sweden

I can only speak for the parts of Sweden where I live and socialise, but I know of no-one who things our policy is "normal", whatever that means. It is some kind of myth that we are ignoring the risks and pretends like nothing is happening. Lots of restrictions, just not as strict as it could have been.

That part about recklessly endangering Europe (!) is hyperbole, UK, Spain and Italy has more deaths capita but apparently the EU can handle them, so...

* Source for death per capita is https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries. I've heard something about them not being fully reliable, but the death statistics should be comparatively easy to aggregate, so I'll use that number unless obviously wrong.

Hyperbole or not, Sweden is going to have to live with being excluded from a lot of EU & international travel relaxations.
