The New York Times’ declared “Sweden suffered a vastly higher death rate while failing to collect on the expected economic gains.”
However when looking at death rates of Sweden vs. similar sized U.S. locked-down states, one finds a different picture (August 4, 2020 stats):

| New York | 8.3 | 32,719 |
| New Jersey | 9.2 | 15,846 |
