Positive rate lower than ever: Sweden is confirmed in the Corona course

Sweden reports a success in the stage to deal with the corona pandemic: the positive test rate has dropped to the lowest level since the virus outbreak. Last week, the tests increased to a record of more than 120,000, according to official information. Only 1.3 percent were positive.

In the spring, the level had been around 19 percent for weeks. According to some experts, the national strategy, which has meanwhile reduced the risk of infection, is paying off.

Sweden is running its own course in the Crown crisis, which is also under close scrutiny abroad and sometimes draws strong criticism. The government has opposed the blockade and instead relies on the individual responsibility of citizens, as well as rules of distance and good hygiene behavior. The idea behind this is to focus on slowing down the spread of the virus, as the pathogen cannot be eradicated anyway.
