I am happy we let our expert government agency in this matter make the decision and not the politicians. There will be an autumn. Countries which let politicians shutdown early have numbers that look good now, but there is autumn and there is shutdown stamina. If you shutdown early there is little herd immunity in the autumn. There is also psychological effects of keeping people in total isolation for too long. In prison isolation is a punishment which I do not wish upon anyone.
Then has to see that its also a group decision from the health authorities in Sweden where there is consensus on the direction board on how to act. Its not a one person decision.
But you didn't achieve herd immunity, and you're going to be in the same place as everyone else (except with more dead). There might be a marginal advantage but antibody studies show Sweden is nowhere near even the more generous estimates of what herd immunity might require.
Everything about the Swedish approach is a failure, and the amazing thing is that not only was the approach bizarre, but the Swedes have a very low testing rate relative to the number of cases - which seems like a weird move (innovate both in approach and in terms of "not knowing what's going on"). Positively 3rd world cases:deaths ratio - it's just embarrassing.
