“Hej” from Sweden, where I can provide your periodic reminder that just because we had no lockdown, things are not so rosy here. The country is in just as deep a recession as our Nordic neighbours, our aviation industry is on life support (and now Norwegian needs more state aid) and more people per capita have died than most other European countries. It’s easy for Brits to say that we’ve done better than the UK, Spain or Italy, but that’s not saying much.
