Sweden Says It's 'Surprising' Their Herd Immunity Gambit Is Such A Disaster

A new Swedish study found that just 7% of people in Stockholm had caught the novel coronavirus COVID-19 by the end of April.

According to Business Insider, Swedish forecasters had previously predicted up to half the population would catch the virus by May.

However, epidemiologists say at least 60% of people need to catch the virus before any protective immunity can be achieved.

Sweden has not implemented strict, wholesale lockdown measures in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
