On this day, there were 1.9 million cases globally. In Sweden, there were 11,927 cases. And about 1200 deaths in Sweden. Yesterday, Anders Tegnell, who is the national epidemiologist, got a grilling, so he must have been tired. So today, it was Anders Wallensten talking. He's the vice-national epidemiologist. He said: we think we finally… Continue reading Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 15, 2020

Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 14, 2020
Today it was very tense in the press conference. I never saw it like this before. On this day, there were 1.9 million cases worldwide. They gave the numbers for Sweden, as well, but they said: there's still probably cases stuck in the system somewhere that haven't reached the national database. (Spoiler: I think they… Continue reading Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 14, 2020
Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 13, 2020
On this day, there are 1.8 million cases worldwide. Today, it was Anders Wallensten giving the main updates.

So he went on, in a very hesitant voice, reciting… Continue reading Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 13, 2020
Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 10, 2020
This press conference was different from all the others. This time, all the speakers (and there were four) were women. How nice. Instead of either Anders Tegnell or Anders Wallensten, the main epidemiologist was this lady. She speaks so nicely and clearly. Anders Tegnell is always slurring his words and ending in a mutter. Her… Continue reading Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 10, 2020

Among the first things they say: and in fact, the very first thing when it came to international updates: that the US has had a hard day. For the second day in a row, have almost 2000 people died.

Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 8
On this day, there were 1.39 million cases globally. This was almost the same amount as the day before, so they thought, maybe updated figures were stuck in some database. There were 8419 cases in Sweden, out of which 726 people had been reported sick under the last day. I think not all those people… Continue reading Sweden coronavirus press conference, April 8
