    I see my last factual post was moderated. Very poor form by someone.

    Here is most of it again.

    See
    https://ourworldindata.org/excess-mortality-covid

    “excess deaths”: take the number of people who die from any cause in a given region and period, and then compare it with the recent historical average. Weekly average, based on 2015-19

    This repository contains the data behind The Economist’stracker for covid-19 excess deaths (which is free to read), and the code that we have used to clean, analyse and present the numbers.

    As you can see, very little difference between covid deaths and excess deaths.

    Like your claim about the Swedish economy, you are totally wrong.

    So two strikes.

    1. Sweden has seven times the death rate of other Nordic countries and a weaker economy.

    2. The deaths due to covid and the excess deaths are almost identical.
