1) Not a shocker at all...
“Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven, says Covid-19 situation is "very serious". "What we do now affects how we can celebrate Lucia & Christmas" he adds. Halland, Örebro, and Jönköping regions will now also have tougher local restrictions, he says.”
2) Halland, Örebro, and Jönköping regions will now also have tougher local restrictions. Currently Stockholm, Uppsala, Skåne, Östergötland, Västra Götaland and now Halland, Örebro and Jönköping regions have local "allmänna råd" (local recommendations).

Very informative thread.
Note - Cases in Sweden does not publish updated COVID-19 data over the weekend and Mondays.

1) From political wizard Albert, his projection on Michigan, Pennsylvania and North Carolina.

Pro-tip - Don’t come @ me with angry tweets. If there’s intelligent questions for Albert, reply first to him. After all, these are his projections.

Cheers !

Key highlights :
1) 5,938 have now died with covid-19 in Sweden, which is an increase of 5 deaths compared to last week (30 deaths adjusted off by Sweden Public Health Agency).
2) The number of deaths is at a relatively low and stable level , but the number admitted to IVA is looking steeply upwards, even though it is slightly less steep than last week and is still about comparatively low numbers.
3) The worst is the infection. The Swedish Public Health Agency reports controlled figures with a one-week lag and week 43 is the highest ever record of number of confirmed infections in a week (9,163 cases), an increase of 63 percent compared with the week before.
