I should probably be offended by the stereotyping, but most of it is true except it is not a culture of conformity, but equality, which is quite different.
Interesting report Hedda but curious in its focus of comparing Sweden to its immediate neighbours only.
Sweden has performed significantly better (deaths per 100 000) than UK,USA,Spain & Italy to take a few. A more balanced report would not just cherry-pick countries Sweden had a higher death rate than; but make a global comparison.
Additionally, Sweden had a very thorough ("aggressive") aporoach to classifying Covid compared to many countries - and yes its immediate neighbours.
