That is the economic article which got posted in the previous topic I mentioned and the economic parts got debunked in that topic and this newer analysis just backs up that the New York Times peddled inaccur

They NY times isn't the only one coming to that conclusion

I don't doubt that Sweden's failure to protect it's own people had some mitigating effect on the hit it took to it's economic activity in the early months of the pandmeic. The problem in dispute is that they somehow spared themselves from being effected economically by a global pandemic and whether that response has actually promoted positive public health outcomes, and the answer to both those questions is a fat resounding no.
