But they’ve had far fewer excess deaths.
Somewhat speculative and many factors but that would make this better news.

I haven't seen any excess death data for Denmark covering the last few weeks. I thought they reported their excess deaths with a 30 day lag. Will see if I can find what you are referring to.

My thinking being, it stands to reasonable reason that a more infectious variant will have a greater impact on a country with lower excess deaths currently. As they will have a higher number of the more vulnerable population still alive and therefore more likely to be hospitalised.
