Sweden's Covid expert warns UK: opening and closing schools would be disastrous
State infectious disease specialist says changing the rules harms public trust
Sweden’s state epidemiologist, Anders Tegnell, says he doesn't know if Sweden's approach was the best one.
While Sweden’s steady-as-you-go strategy is starting to look more sensible as Denmark, Norway and Finland see a resurgence in cases, Tegnell said he now doubted if there would ever be a definitive answer over which strategy was best.
“It will be very difficult to to achieve any kind of really clear-cut answer as to what was right and what was wrong,” he said. “I think we’re talking years into the future before we can get any kind of consensus on how to deal with this in the best possible way.”
