Yes depends how you look at the numbers. 0.1% of Swedes have died if we hit 12,000 dead in Sweden. 0.04% of Americans so they are double the US rate of death.
I’m sure someone can dig up charts that show we did far better than Sweden.
Numbers and science no longer matter. We live in a world of “new math, different versions of the truth, relativism.”
In America everything is political, even a virus, the weather, your plastic shopping bag, car you drive, or oil you use to cook with. Anything politics touches gets distorted. Reality is just whatever version you decide on based in what flag you’re rallying behind.
