Worthless video. Sweden famous for not having a hard lockdown have beaten almost all the hard lockdown countries. If lockdowns are so great then you should not have seen higher death rates in France, UK, Spain, Hungary, Italy, Greece, Czechia, and USA than in Sweden. If lockdown is so great then UK would not be on the top of the list of Covid deaths in Europe since it did one of the hardest lockdowns.

@Dankyjrthethird If you look at the places in Sweden with low population density you still see lower numbers of deaths than in Swedens neighbouring countries with comparable population density. In my home province Jämtland have 130.280 people. 32.492 people have tested positive. Of those have 168 died. That gives you a 0.009% risk of dying among those who tested positive. I don't think that is much. I don't think this is the new bubonic plague. I don't think this number justifies all hysteria with lockdowns, facemasks, and vaccination bullying. All internet censorship all crashing of the economy. Furthermore I would argue that these numbers presented are also probably exaggerating the problem in Jämtland. Many who have got infected with Covid don't even know that they had the disease because they had so mild symptoms, so the risk of dying is therefore probably even lower than what my calculation suggest. And furthermore have treatments been improved over the last two years so the risk of dying have been reduced with over 75% here in Sweden. So those earlier higher death numbers are probably not true for today.
