In this Substack, I showed how the health threat from COVID was never high enough to justify cutting corners regarding “vaccine development.” There was never a good reason to give a new product to people without adequate safety testing (years of testing).
More evidence comes from looking at how life expectancy changed each year for recent years, both in Sweden, and in the world as a whole.
While only covering the first 33 weeks of 2020, a 2021 study in the European Journal of Public Health highlighted how 2019 in Sweden was anomalous, and they offered two estimates for the change in life expectancy in Sweden in 2020: one using 2019 as the baseline, one using 2018.
Here are the life expectancies for Sweden and the world for 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021:
2018
2019
2020
2021
Using 2018 as the baseline, Sweden only lost 0.1 years of life expectancy in 2020, while the world lost 6 times as much by that same measure. Even if using the anomalous 2019 baseline, when death was unexpectedly rare, Sweden still lost less than the world as a whole did in 2020.
Just as important are the numbers for 2021, where Sweden gained life expectancy, while the world as a whole lost an entire year of it.
This is more evidence that the “pandemic” wasn’t an extreme health threat — one supposedly requiring that safety protocols be put aside in development of “vaccines” due to how dire the threat is that we supposedly faced.
Sweden, a nation which refused strict COVID mandates — and one that never mandated the COVID vaccine — had higher life expectancy in 2021 than it did in 2018. This evidence shows that it wasn’t the disease that was so deadly, but the official responses to the disease which were deadly.
This highlights the need for a new medical sovereignty from government edicts and mandates.

We found a reduction in life expectancy in 2020 of about 1 year for Sweden compared with 2019. However, one should consider that 2019 was an outlier with exceptionally high life expectancy, likely due to a very mild flu season. A comparison with 2018 instead showed a reduction in life expectancy by only 0.2 years for men and no decrease at all for women
I'd be curious what happened in 2022 with life expectancy. Sweden seemed to recover a bit but what about the rest of the world?
