I find this paper very undesirable, outrageous and borderline conspirational.

> "There are many experts in epidemiology and virology who are highly critical of the lockdown strategy. Few are willing to talk on record."

I mean that's a pretty easy statement to make. Surely if nobody speaks those ideas can't be scientifically challenged.

> "This Swedish exceptionalism is about principle, not epidemiology."

The lockdown strategy is very country dependant, depends on how quickly the infection spread, how much the health system can cope with. There is no principle in that. Some countries are really struggling now and Sweden would do exactly the same in these situation.

There is a certain "show off" attitude in this article which is highly disrespectful in regard of the situation elsewhere.
