Oh, we will have more geopolitical crisis too, for sure. Borders are easy to close but hard to open, and closed borders increase geopolitical friction. Even in mild-tempered Scandinavia tensions are currently rising, you can imagine how things will get in other areas.

The locked-down countries (i.e. all except Sweden) are relaxing checks and considering reopening borders with each other... except with Sweden, where numbers are still worrying: https://sverigesradio.se/sida/artikel.aspx?programid=2054&ar...

Not reopening their borders with Sweden would be a massive diplomatic snub.
