Comparing COVID-era deaths across countries

While I’ve forgotten a lot of the “Science” presented during COVID, one thing that’s stuck was the many predictions of how terribly Sweden would do, since it wasn’t locking down like the rest of the world.

Now the BBC is reporting on “average death rates from March 2020 to February 2023 compared with the five years before.” The table below doesn’t count deaths attributed specifically to COVID, but instead compares all the deaths in a year to the rate at which death was happening the five years before. And by that measure Sweden did spectacularly, and better than all but one of the ten countries considered. It is, of course, an apples to oranges comparison as no two countries have the same demographics, living arrangements, and lifestyles. But it is still the very opposite of what was predicted.
