Three of the four nations, Finland, Norway and Denmark, appear to have significantly flattened the curve when it comes to confirmed COVID-19 deaths recorded since the 14th of March. The picture in Sweden, however, is very different with a dramatic spike in deaths.

COVID19 has been almost ten times more deadly in Sweden than the other countries, which can be attributed to the nation pursuing a very different approach. Unlike most other countries in Europe, Sweden is yet to order any lockdown and has kept schools, restaurants and gyms open.

They have recorded just under 1,937 deaths from 16,000 confirmed cases. This contrasts with Finland’s 149 deaths from 4,129 confirmed cases, or Norway’s 187 deaths from 7,338 confirmed cases. Norway and Finland have populations roughly half the size of Sweden.

That could take a decade or more, he told Swedish newspaper DN, with the effectiveness of such vaccines as-yet unproven.

In the face of such uncertainty, it is better to let the virus run its course provided infections can be suppressed enough to stop hospitals being overwhelmed, he said.

Mr Giesecke spoke out as Sweden's current top virus expert Anders Tegnell came under fire for refusing to recommend a lockdown, despite the country's number of cases and deaths soaring well above its Nordic neighbours.

Sweden has reported 25,265 cases of coronavirus and 3,175 deaths, a figure which the country's US ambassador has admitted is a 'big failure'.

Nursing homesSweden admits failure to protect elderly in care homes


Bjorn Branngard's mother died in a Stockholm nursing home where five of the eight people in her section and more than a third of residents have so far succumbed to the new coronavirus.

"They didn't have time to take care of my mother," he told AFP.

Her coronavirus test came back negative two days after her death, but Branngard, who claims she died of neglect, says the nursing home staff lacked protective gear and were spreading the virus around the home.

Sweden, whose softer approach to the coronavirus has garnered international attention, admits it has failed to adequately protect the elderly, with around half of COVID-19 deaths occurring among nursing home residents.

Reports have flooded Swedish media in recent weeks of care home staff continuing to work despite a lack of protective gear.
