How does country population density play role where people in both countries live in cities?

Rules in Sweden were no nursing homes visits and no gathering above 50 people.

Look at youtube videos of social distance in Swedish metro during covid, hint there were no distancing.

Average age person who died with covid was 84 years old. Most of these deaths were in nursing homes, which once government realized it, visits were banned.

I can't rediscuss the whole corona pandemic with you.

But I'm stating that this simplification in the earlier comment is not as simple.

Independent of this, it doesn't matter as captain hindsight didn't exist in the beginning of all of this.

If a peer reviewed study comes to the conclusion that a lockdown was a shitty idea it doesn't make it a bad decision.
