Cool story.
Do you have a link to her story about the higher death rate per 100 000 in the US vs Sweden, or the story about the US higher death rate per 100,000 than Canada, Cuba, the Dominican Republic or Haiti ?
May as well toss in Mexico with a death rate per 100,000 very similar to the US, but with a vaccination rate of 1/2 of the US rate.
Sweden's rate is 144/100k
The US is at 205/100k
The thing is, the US has a lot of goddamn stupid people, and 50 states run by very disparate state and local governments.
Sweden has 62% of their population fully vaccinated. The US is at 55%.
If you drill down - San Francisco - which has had aggressive COVID mitigation that the population complied with, the death rate is at 69/100k. Huge chunks of Florida where people protested even the slightest mitigation, are running at 400+/100k. Mississippi as a state is at 315/100k. New York and New Jersey have awful numbers, but they got hit by COVID before we even really knew what it was and could even make basic mitigations or treatments, New Jersey's death graph is completely front loaded into April/May 2020, they never had a meaningful spike after that.
There is no apples to apples comparison of any meaningful sort when you use "Sweden" and "US" for any COVID comparison.
