2/ Third, I've had people try to tell me that the Swedish government can't declare a stay-at-home order due to laws. Well, the Karensdag was a law too, one that Riksdagen worked around. Why then is a stay-at-home order untenable? It's not.
3/ Fourth, I'm still not proud of Sweden's handling of this situation. I just spent the first 28 years of my life in the US on the east coast where it's been a complete catastrophe. Places like NY, TN, and FL. I'd rather be here in Sweden than there. Faint praise, I know.
