Their drop in cases has correlated almost exactly with their normal School and business summer shutdown from mid June to mud August.
Sweden's decline in deaths was well underway in April.

Their deaths have been near zero for a while now and new cases have plummeted.

They have among the lowest rates of wearing masks in the developed world.

So do you have a link to this new data or should we just take your word for it?
Just take my word for it like you take CNN's word for it.

I imagine their overall health plays a role as well.
Their overall health has nothing to do with it. That would affect death rates not infection rates.

I bet you only go to bars with a “tigerland dress code” to keep out people of color, and that don’t have sturdier seating options for people of size
Wait, there are bars like this? Can someone list them, so I can go?

And now Sweden is theoretically done. Let's compare the numbers again in a year.
By all means let's. Lots of countries thought they were "done". Israel (heh - that Israeli scientist who was touted on here looks pretty dumb now), Japan, Australia, Spain, Canada, Germany. There's no reason to think Sweden has reached herd immunity, their numbers (current cases still much higher than Finland, Denmark, Norway) are showing an uptick over the last two weeks, like a lot of places.

I have a doctor friend that lives in Stockholm. He says Sweden is a mess and all the elderly are dying. He also says that herd immunity is impossible.
Your doctor friend is an idiot. He has no idea whether herd immunity is possible.

But I agree that hydroxychloroquine probably was ineffective. Also, who gives a shite?

Yeah, I’d say lockdowns worked better but don’t let facts get in the way of your opinion
You left out two important points:
1. Sweden is unlike those two countries. It's much more internationalist and has a higher percentage of people living in a dense city, so we would expect a higher death toll.
2. Sweden is done with the virus, and it sustained much less economic damage. Furthermore, Norway and Finland still have a huge economic price to pay, Sweden does not.
3. Norway and Finland still have to suffer the infection wave (or sit tight until a vaccine is available).

I have been a big fan of Sweden's approach, but I have not seen evidence of this. Can you please link to that?

Are they allowing people to enter the country? Surely they have had some form of lock downs. I think they mainly just wanted kids to go to school?

Civil disobedience is the answer. Do not follow mandates. They are pointless and not based on science. They are harming us far more than helping us.

Governors are closing places of business for not following the mandates. You can either follow, or lose your arse and business.

Only five to 10 per cent of Nordic citizens say they used a mask in public settings
