Remarkably honest, unhysterical, & informative interview of Sweden’s Anders Tegnell on C19: “Why we aren’t wearing masks in Sweden” (1/6)

2/6 His belief is that, in the final account, the (C19) Infection Fatality Rate will be similar to the flu: “somewhere between 0.1% & 0.5% of people getting infected, maybe … & that is not radically different to what we see with the yearly flu.”
3/6 “On the controversial question of immunity, he suggests that a larger percentage of the population in Sweden is already immune than antibody studies suggest”
4/6 “The emphasis on spread of the virus to the exclusion of everything else Dr Tegnell believes is misguided, as the number of cases is less and less correlated to the number of deaths”
5/6 “He believes strongly that eradication — the zero-tolerance approach that is increasingly winning the day in the UK and US — is not a viable option.”
6/6 “After all these months, does he now think that his strategy is a failure or a success? A bit of both, he says quickly, but emphasizes more of the latter:”
