> A report from the research firm Capital Economics published on Tuesday found that the Swedish economy was the least harmed in Europe, describing it as the "best of a bad bunch."
> Though Sweden was not immune to the pandemic's economic impact, it was the only major economy to grow in the first quarter of the year, the report noted.
Can you explain how Sweden's performance in the first quarter has anything to do with Covid?
Most of the lockdowns happened at the end of the first quarter and lasted for most of the second quarter.
Maybe I'm missing something but it sounds like they are grasping at straws there when more accurate data shows the opposite picture.
