"The British government opted in March for a Swedish-style mitigation strategy, but was forced to pull a U-Turn a week later in the face of widespread media and public criticism (including a nasty Twitter campaign accusing Boris Johnson of genocide). Britain was locked down on March 23; that very same day, a similar media campaign began against Sweden. The past 40 weeks since then have seen a steady stream of articles – more than five every week – pronouncing the failure of the Swedish 'experiment' [sic], like a stopped clock." (George J. Dance, "The importance of Sweden")
