Sweden has a left of center government that has [ until now] not taken measures to safeguard it's people as compared to say, Australia, as this link shows. Sweden has less than half Australia's population yet has 400 deaths as compared far less than 100 deaths in Australia. Is that a fair enough comparison of
the left VS right?

Sweden has so far recorded more than 400 coronavirus deaths — about 10 times as many as Australia. Its population is around half that of Australia.
But its Government is standing by its relatively relaxed approach to the pandemic.
Rather than telling people what to do — or, worse, telling them off — the Government is asking Swedes to do the right thing, and giving them the liberty to prove they are responsible citizens.
While the Government has taken some measures, such as limiting social gatherings to 50 people and closing high schools and universities, experts say it is betting on Sweden's "social obedience".
But that's a lot of trust to put in your people at a time of global pandemic, and a gamble that could have catastrophic consequences
Sweden's left of centre gouvernment has fucked up its response and is now edging towards 600 deaths.
Trump's America has fucked up its response and is on track to overtake Spain in total deaths *today*.
I know who did more harm.
I understand that this site is to most here is like getting a vampire to look into a mirror, or waving a crucifix at them. But it does have FACT CHECK.

Many Democrats and much of the media claim that President Donald Trump has mishandled and continues to
mishandle the response to the coronavirus pandemic.
But a Johns Hopkins study found the United States is better prepared for a pandemic than any other country. Released in October 2019, the Global Health Security Index examined 195 countries on their preparedness and ability to handle an epidemic or pandemic. It found: "No country is fully prepared for epidemics or pandemics, and every country has important gaps to address."
No, Trump did not cut funding for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Among those pushing this untruth is former Vice President Joe Biden, who said, "They've cut the funding for the CDC." Trump proposed a CDC cut, but Congress disagreed. FactCheck.org wrote: "It's misleading at best to claim Trump 'slashed funding,' when his proposals haven't taken effect. For instance, Trump's fiscal 2020 budget proposal would have reduced CDC funding by $750.6 million, compared with what was enacted for fiscal 2019. ... But Congress passed, and Trump signed, a budget that increased CDC funding by $420 million."
