Lockdowns will cause 10 times more harm to human health than COVID-19 itself, says infectious disease expert

And way worse than most other European countries. Interesting you keep ignoring that.
Actually around 6,000 up from the average, a 7% increase in deaths.
Coincidentally they've had 6,000 deaths from covid.
p.s. Their daily cases are just 100 lees than the peak in June. Guess that herd immunity hasn't kicked in yet.
You are wrong. What a surprise.
Stop being an ostrich. Wake up and smell the covid. It'll be good for you to get a dose of reality.
Consensus is often achieved on a political basis even if the science is far from settled.
Math is not your strong point I see. They are only up about 3,800 from their average of 90,500 annual deaths.

In 2020 so far they had 71,647 total deaths. That figure was 9 months into this year.
So 9/12 = 75%.
75% of 90,500 = 67,875.
71,647-67,875 = 3,772.
They are 3,772 deaths over their normal average deaths per year after 9 months, which is 67,875 deaths.
However their monthly average deaths have declined sharply over the last 4 months, so I wouldnt be surprised if they "only" have a couple of thousand increase in deaths by the end of 2020.
I will post the final tally in January of 2021 to see what the exact number is
31 international flights with Covid cases have arrived in the past 2 weeks, but hey, gyms and bars and family dinners are the real problem.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19): Locations where you may have been exposed to COVID-19 - Canada.ca
If you have travelled recently by plane, train or cruise ship, use this Government of Canada tool to find out if you might have been exposed to COVID-19.
At the current rate Sweden will end up with roughly 95,500 deaths, this is not taken into account any unseen and unnecessary deaths being seen from COVID, check that number in 2-4 weeks.
If they end up at roughly 95,500 that would be roughly over 5,000 excess deaths than their average over the last decade which is roughly the number of COVID deaths currently. That number would represent a substantial increase over the years.
You demonstrated nothing wrong with my math. But your response suggests the possibility of your lack of reading comprehension ability.
I actually did because you took the lowest number of deaths (the year 2019) instead of the decade's average (which is about 90,500)
In a scientific sense, things are never settled. We believe there is always more to discover.
From a broader sense, people who claim the science isn't settled are typically full of shit.
Especially considering the spike in case rates.

You know that Prof Hanke is a Far Right economist, alumnus of the Cato Institute and has no science expertise, huh?
His entire shtick is posting stuff about how interventionist governments have "failed".
Sounds about the usual "unbiased expert" you guys are always quoting.
You know that Nathalie Rothschild is a journalist with no science credentials who is all in on being the "Swedish journalist who calls out COVID lockdowns as useless", huh? It's her claim to fame.
Pretty well-qualified, unbiased source there.
