Sweden - Cases 6830 New Cases 387 Deaths 401 New Deaths 28 Death Rate 5.8%
Norway - Cases 5645 New Cases 95 Deaths 66 New Deaths 4 Death Rate 1.1%
Finland - Cases 1927 New Cases 45 Deaths 28 New Deaths 3 Death Rate 1.4%
I think it's too early to read anything into those statistics.

I realise you are comparing Scandinavian countries, but compared to the UK at present they have a death rate/million of pop at nearly half ours and furthermore their new daily cases and deaths have dropped dramatically over the last couple of days.
