Sweden sticks with ‘sustainable’ strategy
Sweden’s controversial light-touch approach to the COVID-19 lockdown might be bearing fruit. It seems to have avoided, so far, the second wave of infections that threatens many of its European neighbours (although its number of COVID-19 deaths, particularly in care homes, remains among the highest in Europe). The country’s top epidemiologist, Anders Tegnell, says the reason is that the approach is sustainable over years, unlike strict national lockdowns. “We have really tried to focus on places that we have known are going to be really dangerous,” says Tegnell, who shies away from the fame — and infamy — he has gained during the pandemic.
