"...removing 67% of the total deaths in Sweden still leaves more than 1,400 people dead who were not in elderly care facilities. Compared to the 236 deaths in Norway, that’s still six orders of magnitude more death in Sweden than in Norway.

...

Sweden’s lead epidemiologist, Anders Tegnell, seems to have a bit of a problem with math."

I couldn't help but chuckle at an author misunderstanding orders of magnitude in one paragraph and accusing others of misunderstanding maths in the next.

This article appears to be an attempt to paint the Sweden model in a negative light rather than honestly compare it to alternatives.
