How different is Sweden’s coronavirus strategy to its Scandinavian neighbours?

With its refusal to resort to strict lockdowns, Sweden is seen an outlier among the Scandinavian countries for its softer coronavirus strategy. Yet as Denmark and Norway start to lift some of their restrictions, are the three countries starting to align?
To find out what the neighbouring nations think of Sweden’s approach, and whether all three will soon be pulling in a similar direction, Radio Sweden spoke to Line Vold, Director of Infectious Disease Epidemiology at Norway’s Institute of Public Health, and Hans Jørn Kolmos, a Professor of Clinical Microbiology at the University of Southern Denmark, who previously worked at Denmark’s Ministry of Health.
Listen to the report to hear their thoughts.
