Özet
States are being tested by the COVID-19 outbreak. The chosen anti-epidemic strategies became an indicator of what states are for and who they are for. Sweden entered this exam with 82.5 years life expectancy at birth and low mortality rates due to preventable and treatable causes.As in all other comparisons, Sweden should be compared with similar countries to evaluate its COVID-19 strategy. The comparison with other Scandinavian countries shows the failure of its strategy. Compared to 2019, the life expectancy of 50 years has decreased by 1 year for Sweden and 1.5 years for Stockholm. 40% of deaths are in nursing homes and 91% are over 70 years old. With the strategy implemented, “herd” immunity was not created, those at risk could not be protected and its economy is not better than similar. Nevertheless, high trust culture has been protected with other economic measures taken. But contradictory voices are rising, especially scientists.Sweden would have been an example of success. It had this chance. However, it seems that it did not prefer human beings in the choice between human and system. As this continues, new outbreaks will be inevitable. © 2022, Turkish Medical Association. All rights reserved.
