The deaths were not all recent. Sweden's reporting on any given day has some deaths that happened weeks in the past, the blue parts in this chart:pic.twitter.com/BKnqYIygkn

Its simply not valid to compare countries using arbitrary time frames in this way as theyl have different schedules of reporting when deaths actually happened.

Exactly, and Sweden just reported 40 deaths this morning while there was 88 deaths reported yesterday. If the article waited one more do to do their comparison the rankings for the past week would probably be much different.

It's Charlottesville-esque fake news Scott. A deliberate and obvious sleight of hand to discredit efforts to come out of lockdown. Sweden's death rate no way near Belgium's for example.

Over a week is cherry picked. Completely arbitrary time frame. No one has ever considered a weekly death rate meaningful until it magically fit their narrative.

It's basically like your two screens theory. Everyone sees what they want to see from just this one story.
