Sweden's daily death toll and its number of new coronavirus cases both fell today as the country continues to hold out against imposing a lockdown.
The
77 new deaths - down from 106 yesterday - bring the total from 793 to
870, according to figures from Sweden's public health agency. The number of confirmed infections went up by 544, a drop of nearly a quarter from yesterday's near-record figure of 722. It takes the total number of cases from 9,141 to 9,685. These
figures will likely be used to pressure governments which have resorted
to lockdowns to battle Covid-19 to lift the draconian restrictions.
