Other countries already have excess deaths (e.g. US: https://public.tableau.com/views/COVID_excess_mort_withcause...) indicating that not only people have died sooner than they would have (which is irreparable), but more people will have died within this year than in a year without Covid. It could be argued that US & Sweden's policies are not that distant. I guess that US has cities with much higher population density & much more unavoidable commute (as in the higher affected areas in Europe).
