The other way around. The few countries that didn't lock down are reverting to lock down and an eventual much worse economic disaster through losing control. Once contained and spread of virus is tracked to individuals, a cautious relaxing of isolation rule will take place. Countries like Sweden will still be in ravaged mode as they have no clue who has it and who is spreading it. This is exactly how it has already played out for Italy, Spain, US. Sweden has two fifths the population of Australia. It is small. Yet it has officially has the 9th most deaths per capita in the world. It is currently worse than the US. That's a disgraceful act to encourage the death of your own people. Sweden has approximately 40 times the death rate per capita of Australia. And it's in it's early phase still. If Australia was on the same path there be 2000 deaths by now instead of 49. Who in their right mind would advocate that? Trump and you?

Here's the reality. Sweden heading for a recession just like eveyone else with the complication of immense health issues and death.
