In the opion poll 80% of the people thought that our government was doing a good or very good job handling the virus.

The so called "Swedish strategy" of relying on personal responsibility without lock-down laws and having the authorities policing every individual may only work in countries like Sweden, that has a strong welfare state. When they ask us to stay at home when we feel the slightest sick, we can also do...
