The numbers for Sweden look like the numbers for Georgia, which is interesting, both have about the same population, Sweden of course is only doing distancing, Georgia was shuttered for a few weeks.
The reporting methods likely are different.
Georgia has less than half the number of deaths/1M population of Sweden, although it has about a 20% higher cases/1M population number. Sweden may be under-testing, as they only have about 60% of the overall tests performed as Georgia, so the case numbers may be suspect.
Sweden just passed the Netherlands, after passing Ireland, to be 6th* on the list of deaths/1M population.
At 322 deaths/1M, they're now one of the higher nations in Europe. When compared to their "peers", Finland is only at 49 deaths/1M, and Norway is at 40 deaths/1M.
Oddly, Finland's daily new case numbers seem to be increasing steadily while Norway's are very low. I don't have much of an explanation for that...
But it suggests to those who are advocating a controlled and careful opening up**, perhaps at least to Sweden-style policies, that there will be a human cost associated with that. Sweden has managed to avoid overwhelming their healthcare system, but at best you can say they've had Coronavirus on a controlled burn, nowhere near extinguishing it.
BTW the US would be 9th on that list at 244 deaths/1M, but only 8 of our states have death/1M numbers higher than Sweden's, and our numbers are HIGHLY dominated by NY/NJ. Combined, they're a little over 40% of our total deaths.
* Note: that's 6th amongst populous nations. I don't think it's wrong to pull San Marino, Andorra, and Sint Maarten out of the list as they're too small to be relevant and none have more than 50 deaths total, but I don't want to be accused of not disclosing it. With those nations added, Sweden would be 9th.
** I honestly now consider myself in this group. I don't think this thing CAN be extinguished, no matter how long we keep the economy closed. Especially not in America, where we simply won't accept a China-style lockdown. I don't think it's going away for the summer either. So if we're on a controlled burn trajectory, we need to--as someone said recently here--start "feathering the throttle" on reopening. The goal is to avoid overwhelming the healthcare system, and slowly build to herd immunity, while allowing businesses to actually start making money and employing people again.
