Where did get that figure of 40% from?

Lack of information in Swedish had very little to do with why Somalis contracted the virus. Tegnell even pointed this out.

I don't know but on the 24'th of march 15 people had died of COVID19 in Stockholm. 6 of those where Somali. This is from a SVT article and one of the first where this is reported. 6/15=0.4 so maybe this is where the 40% figure comes from.

The Somalis in the Järva area in Stockholm contracted the virus in early march. Thats why we saw those deaths at the end of march.
