I guess that depends on who you compare against. Sure they report more of the actual dead than the uk and are way better off but they still have quite a lot more death than sweden even if one looks at the excess deaths only and they are in lockdown.

It's a pity they haven't incorporated testing rates into that graphic. I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a fairly strong link between the two metrics.

Of course. The R rate is lower in Sweden. Comparing Brussels and Stockholm May be better. Along with economic impact. Not easy.
Sweden’s strategy is predicated on a naturally low R rate within their communities. This due to culture, geography, etc. It’s worth remembering whilst Belgium and Sweden have similar sized populations density is also totally different. Sweden is over ten times the size.

Belgium is fine. They just count all suspected C19 related deaths. The UK is different. We let doctors in private nursing homes (for example) make that decision.
