I might be completely missing something here, but if Google Translate is correct, these are the daily deaths in Sweden at https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/09f821667ce64bf7be6f9f87457ed9aa

And these are the daily deaths in Sweden on https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/sweden/

Why such a difference?

aleslipicnik commented 4 years ago

Please resolve that. Many local media companies use Wordometer data, and it can be assumed that governments as well. It is not acceptable that they create news, consequential public opinion and accept measures based on the unreliable source of data. Understandably, Wordometer is a non-profit and low budget project. Nevertheless, that does not mean that a heavy load of responsibility is not on shoulders.

Hi @zupo and @aleslipicnik

I think you are confusing Our World in Data (our organization) with Worldometers. We are not affiliated with Worldometers in any way.

Our data, graphs, and articles are published at https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus, and our data comes directly from the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control.

Best, Edouard
