        Depressingly, there is little evidence that the pre-existing immunity from the first wave has substantially dampened viral spread, despite earlier hopespic.twitter.com/F4yoZrhjRD

        Worth noting that Tegnell himself predicted that Sweden would reach "herd immunity" by mid-May originally, until serology studies proved that this was wrongpic.twitter.com/AMB4e6JChz

        ... meanwhile, other countries have decided that the Swedish way in wave #1 was so great that they should follow that example.

        Including my province apparently. They did a great job round one then started acting like Floridians round 2... it’s been a bit shocking.
