to go back to sweden, sweden and finland did a study comparing the two country schools because schools in finland close for two months, schools and sweden never closed. they found that activity, raised rates of hospital and tests with one through 19 were the same in both countries. note children age 1-19 died. and this is important because you hear the teachers complaining i'm at risk, i am at risk, but in fact, rates of infection among teachers in sweden were lower than the overall population. because children don't spread this very frequently, you know, i know it's hard to believe but schools are actually a safer place for the teachers to go than walmart or wherever they would be hanging out if schools were not in session. >> laura: the cdc, the cdc said today that you are more likely to get sick from being at home then you are from outside of contacts. that is cdc, phil. by the way, you said you caught "the new york times" lying about what a korean study on viral loads in children? the report warned that score reopening's will trigger more outbreaks with older children because they

let's go to sweden and then we go to the recovery fund. >> what can i say about sweden? sweden chose slightly different approach than some of the other member states, even though i think one should also say it's not black and white, i think also the i would say the geographical circumstances in sweden, we cannot compare to the geographical circumstances in let's a city like paris. you need to take these also these differences into account. and in reality, there have been differences in approach between all member states, also depending on who actually the severity of the pandemic. the overall impression is that sweden has followed this lightly, and some of the other member states. now, i think it would not be for me i think, to pass judgment so i won't do that. see one can see, i need to be careful because i have not looked very specifically at the numbers. but the number of casualties seems to be somewhat higher in sweden than maybe in the neighboring countries. which has attracted discussion. i think it is too soon to tell to see how that will play out in the and some

what do you think of how they handle things in sweden? firstly, let me say it's new for us, all around the world. everybody is trying to throw the best mix of interventions at this epidemic, trying to find a middle way to curb, to flatten the curve, but not to completely choke the economy or other terrible consequences on, like, mental health consequences, people, if they are restricted in their movement and freedom for too long. we started with our restrictive measures very early in the epidemic. and therefore, maybe also for other reasons, our cumulative death number is today, i am just looking at the other screen, 128, ina am just looking at the other screen, 128, in a population of 25 million. so, that is, we have a very, very low numbers, the total cases we have in the country is 12,000. so, the mortality, the death rate is actually here at much lower than it was and it is in sweden. just very, very briefly, professor, we are almost out of time, if death rates go almost out of time, if death rates 9° up almost out of time, if death

only about 6% of sweden are known to have antibodies. immunity is definitely a lot higher than 6%. it is unclear how high has proven to be surprisingly difficult to measure. protecting the economy wasn't a formal part of sweden's strategy, but there were also hopes of avoiding a lockdown would help. forecasters think sweden is on track to do better than other hard—hit countries like italy and the uk, but that is not the whole story. well, compared to our scandinavian neighbours, we are not doing very much better. sweden, like the other nordic countries, is a small open economy, very dependent on trade, so the swedish economy tends to do poorly when the rest of the world is doing poorly. public confidence in sweden's government has fallen, and the prime minister recently announced a commission to look into the country's response to covid—19. after increased national debate about the death rate, especially in care homes. the swedish model is really put under pressure right now. but also, how strong trust in expertise agencies, advising the government rather than the government be

we in sweden trust the authorities, and if the authorities they stay we in sweden trust the authorities, and if the authorities they say at home please and work from home, we do that. so they didn't need to say, "you have to go on a lockdown." i do think the natural thing would be to shut things down a bit more. i don't understand why we're not being more careful. i don't understand. for months, sweden's had one of the most highest death tolls in europe in relation to its population size. but there are signs things are improving despite its controversial approach. the swedish public health agency has reported a sharp drop in fatalities with daily admissions to intensive care units down to single figures. i mean, of course it feels good. i mean, finally we are where we hoped we would be much earlier on. but now we can see this rapid decline that is really hopeful. what about herd immunity? it wasn't the point of the swedish strategy, but something that you thought would be an outcome, spoke very strongly about. but studies suggest only about 6% of people in sweden are known to have antib
