As other countries face renewed outbreaks, Sweden’s latest Covid-19 figures suggest it’s rapidly bringing the virus under control.
“That Sweden has come down to these levels is very promising,†state epidemiologist Anders Tegnell said.
Since hitting a peak in late June, Sweden’s infection rate has fallen sharply, according to the Health Agency of Sweden. That’s amid an increase in testing over the period. “The curves are going down and the curves for the seriously ill are beginning to approach zero,†Tegnell said.
