In the last 5 weeks, Sweden has seen triple the mortality from #COVID19 as it did during its last (yearly) influenza season
And the number of deaths is still increasing daily

Not cases! I mean deaths, although today's numbers are a welcome dip. Cases will continue increasing everywhere I imagine, although the rate of increase in Sweden has declined significantly

Of course there will be more deaths If you look at the numbers though it's obvious that the increase is going slower and if the previous delay in reporting hasn't increased for some reason then the numbers have plateued. At least for the moment. We'll see if easter changed thatpic.twitter.com/VTETKfNieo

There's reports of increasing deaths in nursing homes, and I'm concerned if accounting for them is adding extra delay cf deaths in hospitals, where the % of elderly admitted has dropped significantly. Could be a large backlog This may show up in reported deaths by age over time.
