Sweden has recorded the highest daily rise since June with 752 new COVID-19 cases - the latest in a steady rise in infections after months of limited spread during the summer holiday season
Sweden registered 752 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday, the highest daily rise since June, Health Agency statistics showed, the latest in a steady rise in infections in recent weeks after months of limited spread during the summer holiday season.
Deaths from COVID-19 have also slowed to a trickle with not a single new fatality being recorded on Thursday. However, the rise in daily cases was the highest since June 30, when Sweden registered just over 800 new cases. Sweden's coronavirus strategy has largely been based on making recommendations and getting information out to the public, leveraging people's high level of trust in national and local authorities and eschewing legal mandates as far as possible.
