Sweden has far and away the highest death rate of the Nordics, over 11 times that of Norway. I really don't think the data supports your point. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality
Norway indeed basically hasn't had COVID. Perhaps they will when they have fully finished releasing their lockdown, or perhaps COVID is more like seasonal flu, which does hit some countries and not others for unexplained reasons every year.
However, the point stands. Sweden has not had particularly bad outcomes, being as it is in the middle of the pack, and with most deaths being in care homes where Sweden has many other severe problems, e.g. many staff who can't speak Swedish. In fact in one care home they ended up in a spot where none of the staff spoke Swedish causing problems for a resident who couldn't communicate with them to get food! So given Sweden's dependency on immigrant labour for care homes it's maybe not a surprise they've had problems protecting those homes. For the general population however, COVID has not been a problem.
I don't even bother getting into death rate discussions any more because it is pointless.
You read the Survivors Groups on FB [0] and the real problem people aren't understanding is that this isn't quick death we need to worry about, it is the long term health effects that will lead to a lifetime of medical issues.
