It will be interesting to see how many healthcare workers will take the risk to work at 220% of their normal wages, I wonder if they get the same paid if they are on sick leave.
Yesterday afternoon, the outside shopping mall parking lot at Malmo-Hyllie was filled to the brim. And it wasn’t busy with just grocery shoppers, even as those too were reported as being busy and a large proportion of people waiting in checkout lines like normal ..... as in the time before there were any of these virus deaths registered in Sweden.

The Swedish death count is at or above 373 people now. And business as usual with most commercial and businesses open and with social activities continuing almost as usual.
