You seem to have a significant comprehension problem.
The article discusses pre-pandemic "overflowing" morgues, if you want to subscribe and see for yourself what it has to say, please feel free to do so. It's not a new problem, esp. in the USA.
Mortality rate is the total deaths from all causes, not just covid. Despite having higher deaths attributed to covid than some other countries, in the end this had less of an influence on Sweden's mortality rate. Sweden's excess deaths was something like 7.7% which is somewhat less than what other countries, like Belgium, experienced.
If this still doesn't make sense, don't bother responding.
What makes sense to me is that someone - whose only support for their opinion, apparently, is the title of an article they haven't read - probably doesn't want to know any more because they are afraid they might be wrong.
As for Sweden I'm not sure why you want to retreat to the country's overall mortality rate when the topic is deaths from covid.
The article is about "overflowing" morgues pre-pandemic
Implying it was no different during the pandemic. But with no proof.
My first post stated mortality rate, you twisted it to only be about covid.
The mortality rate is the statistic people use when they want to minimize the consequences of being infected. "How do we make this percentage small? Let's include people who don't even have the virus." If someone DOES get the virus chances are, on average, two in one hundred they will die. Even if they're young and healthy the risk remains that they will pass it on to someone who is old and/or vulnerable.
