Sweden is now giving themselves a hard time because other countries do after being the country that didn't give in to the mass panic other countries did give in to. They are now convincing themselves they did something wrong because they are outnumbered by countries that gave in to mass panic, and thought the Swedes should do the same.
It's no wonder Sweden is neutral, the way they let other countries push them around, from policy to everything else. If you're going to do something you might as well keep sticking with it. The economy isn't good anywhere, so of course it's not going to be good in Sweden either. They'll have to fight just like any other country to keep sticking with what they're doing. They don't think they are better than anyone.

Sweden didn't do any worse on protecting it's elderly than any other country that had locked everything down. Nobody in Sweden should've conceded anything to anybody else, or apologized to anybody for anything. True failure is being afraid to try because people gave you death threats or adversity.
Sweden has no good reason to say they failed on anything or anyone to anybody, since you don't hear countries that locked everything and everyone down with many more excess deaths than Sweden saying they also failed their populations or their elderly. Bullshit, the elderly are more at risk every day already of death. While it's as possible to die young as it is to die of old age, it's also true that every year you live is a year closer to death, and nobody lives forever. It has a lot to do with why so many elderly folks got sick from the virus in the first place.
Though Sweden hasn't locked down a year into the pandemic, death rates are still lower than countries that did lock down. It wouldn't be a good idea to change now. Resisting lockdowns is resisting them even when there is opposition within your own country. If you don't remain standing, you will fall for anything.
Sweden shouldn't take a knee or a bow to pressure from other countries or from opposition within their own because they are neutral. They've been standing against lockdowns for a year now, that's too much effort and work to turn into bullshit and throw away by doing what everybody else is doing based on a little pressure from the opposition that wants you to.
