Bingo. And their economy is doing great compared to the rest of the world's drops, and their infections have plummeted and their new deaths are near zero. No stupid ass masks in public as well.
Sweden won.
FACTS:
Swedens deaths = 5744
Massachusetts deaths = 8638
Oh and Sweden has 3 million more people.
Yeah, Sweden did it worse @)
So who handled this better, Sweden or the northeast of the United States?
And answer in your own words. Don't spam copy pasta.

Who "handled" it better? Or whose "approach" was better? If your question is the latter, that remains to be seen. And may never be known for a certainty.
"But the strategy has also resulted in Sweden having one of the highest death rates in the world, at 56.4 per 100,000, and it’s unclear whether the economy will fare much better than in neighboring Denmark and Norway, which initially imposed strict lockdowns and have seen substantially lower fatalities.
“We do not know how the virus strategy will affect the economies in the long run,” said Nordea economist Torbjorn Isaksson in emailed comments. “Our Nordic neighbors locked down but may be able to open up and normalize faster.”

Great point. In addition to some of the best public health policy in the world, Sweden also has some of the best economic policy. The more the rest of the world looks to them as an example worth following, the better everyone will be.

Sweden wasn't infested with large numbers of infected people from China, Iran, Italy, etc, as the USA was early on before international travel was shut down. Reverse their locations - put Sweden where NY or other high infection zones in the US were - and you'ld see how worse off Sweden would have been and how much better off NY, etc, would have been. Better to compare Sweden with its neighboring countries to get a better guage of how it's doing relative to another approach.
Except Sweden has now reached near herd immunity with a thriving economy and the others don't have herd immunity and had lockdowns.
Sorry. You're wrong.
