As of January 13, 2023, Sweden had reported 2,687,840 confirmed coronavirus cases. Cases first started to rise sharply in spring 2020, when the number of new confirmed cases per day started to increase, however the peak was much higher in winter 2021/22.

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19)

The coronavirus was officially declared as a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. The novel coronavirus was first detected at a fish and seafood market in the Chinese city of Wuhan, in the Hubei province, in late December 2019. Since then, the virus reached over 668 million cases worldwide as of January 9, 2023.

Coronavirus-related deaths in Sweden

The first coronavirus related death in Sweden was reported on March 11, 2020 and as of January 13, 2023, the number of deaths reached a total of 22,645. The highest number of deaths occurred among the age group from 80 to 90 years old.

In past 24 hours, Sweden, Europe had N/A new cases, N/A deaths and 18 recoveries.

Sweden recorded 2708122 Coronavirus Cases since the epidemic began, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In addition, Sweden reported 24166 Coronavirus Deaths. This dataset includes a chart with historical data for Sweden Coronavirus Cases.

The highest number of confirmed coronavirus (COVID-19) cases in Sweden as of January 11, 2023 was in the region of Stockholm, with 618,037. The second highest number was in the region Västra Götaland, with a total of 454,551 confirmed cases.

As of January 13, 2023, the number of confirmed cases in the country had reached a total of 2,687,840. For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

On January 13, 2023, Sweden registered 715 new coronavirus cases. The first case of coronavirus (COVID-19) in Sweden was confirmed on January 31, 2020. The number of cases in the country has since risen to a total of 2,687,840.

The worldwide number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 was over 668 million as of January 9, 2023. For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

Context

Covid-19 is a global pandemic which requires a global effort to enable innovative solutions. We hope that this dataset will encourage such thinking and bring us closer to mapping an uncertain future for Sweden and the world.

Content

This data represents both confirmed cases and confirmed deaths from Covid-19 in Sweden by region per day. It is updated regularly and get transferred here as soon as an update is made. The data is collected from the National Health Agency of Sweden (Folkshälsomyndigheten) as well as regional health agencies for more up-to-date information.

Based on a comparison of coronavirus deaths in 210 countries relative to their population, Peru had the most losses to COVID-19 up until July 13, 2022. As of the same date, the virus had infected over 557.8 million people worldwide, and the number of deaths had totaled more than 6.3 million. Note, however, that COVID-19 test rates can vary per country. Additionally, big differences show up between countries when combining the number of deaths against confirmed COVID-19 cases. The source seemingly does not differentiate between "the Wuhan strain" (2019-nCOV) of COVID-19, "the Kent mutation" (B.1.1.7) that appeared in the UK in late 2020, the 2021 Delta variant (B.1.617.2) from India or the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) from South Africa.

The difficulties of death figures

This table aims to provide a complete picture on the topic, but it very much relies on data that has become more difficult to compare. As the coronavirus pandemic developed across the world, countries already used different methods to count fatalities, and they sometimes changed them during the course of the pandemic. On April 16, for example, the Chinese city of Wuhan added a 50 percent increase in their death figures to account for community deaths. These deaths occurred outside of hospitals and went unaccounted for so far. The state of New York did something similar two days before, revising their figures with 3,700 new deaths as they started to include “assumed” coronavirus victims. The United Kingdom started counting deaths in care homes and private households on April 29, adjusting their number with about 5,000 new deaths (which were corrected lowered again by the same amount on August 18). This makes an already difficult comparison even more difficult. Belgium, for example, counts suspected coronavirus deaths in their figures, whereas other countries have not done that (yet). This means two things. First, it could have a big impact on both current as well as future figures. On April 16 already, UK health experts stated that if their numbers were corrected for community deaths like in Wuhan, the UK number would change from 205 to “above 300”. This is exactly what happened two weeks later. Second, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly which countries already have “revised” numbers (like Belgium, Wuhan or New York) and which ones do not. One work-around could be to look at (freely accessible) timelines that track the reported daily increase of deaths in certain countries. Several of these are available on our platform, such as for Belgium, Italy and Sweden. A sudden large increase might be an indicator that the domestic sources changed their methodology.

Where are these numbers coming from?

The numbers shown here were collected by Johns Hopkins University, a source that manually checks the data with domestic health authorities. For the majority of countries, this is from national authorities. In some cases, like China, the United States, Canada or Australia, city reports or other various state authorities were consulted. In this statistic, these separately reported numbers were put together. For more information or other freely accessible content, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

Context

With European governments struggling with a 'second-wave' of rising cases, hospitalizations and deaths resulting from the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19), I wanted to make a comparative analysis between the data coming out of major European nations since the start of the pandemic.

It has been well publicized that Sweden has taken a different approach to most Western European nations when it comes to public policy regarding COVID-19. This has drawn significant attention from across the world and so, allied to the fact that Sweden publishes it's data in a clear and understandable way that is easy to access, it seemed like a good place to start.

In time, I hope to construct other European national datasets for direct comparison - probably starting with my own country, the United Kingdom.

I also should say I am not an Epidemiologist, Sociologist or even a Data Scientist. I am actually a Mechanical Engineer! The objective here is to improve my data science skills and maybe provide some useful data to the wider community.

The first case of COVID-19 in Sweden was diagnosed in late January 2020, the first recommendations against the spread of the virus were released in mid-March, and the peak of the first wave of the pandemic was reached in March-June. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to assess the short-term effects of the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic on prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosis, staging, and treatment. Data in the National Prostate Cancer Register (NPCR) of Sweden on newly diagnosed PCa cases and on the number of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures performed between 18 March 2020 and 2 June 2020 were compared with those in the corresponding time periods in 2017–2019, as reported until January 31 of the year after each study period. During the study period in 2020, 36% fewer PCa cases were registered in NPCR compared with the corresponding time period in previous years: 1458 cases in 2020 vs a mean of 2285 cases in 2017–2019. The decrease in new PCa registrations was more pronounced in men above age 75 years, down 51%, than in men aged 70–75, down 37%, and in men below age 70, down 28%. There was no decrease in the number of radical prostatectomies and number of radical radiotherapy courses increased by 32%. During the peak of the first phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of men diagnosed with PCa in Sweden decreased by one third compared with previous years, whereas there was no decrease in the number of curative treatments.

11th January 2020 Change to vaccination data made available by UK gov - now just cumulative number of vaccines delivered are available for both first and second doses. For the devolved nations the cumulative totals are available for the dates from when given, however for the UK as a whole the total doses given is just on the last date of the index, regardless of when those vaccines were given.

4th January 2020 VACCINATION DATA ADDED - New and Cumulative First Dose Vaccination Data added to UK_National_Total_COVID_Dataset.csv and UK_Devolved_Nations_COVID_Dataset.csv

2nd December 2020:

NEW population, land area and population density data added in file NEW_Official_Population_Data_ONS_mid-2019.csv. This data is scraped from the Office for National Statistics and covers the UK, devolved UK nations, regions and local authorities (boroughs).

20th November 2020:

With European governments struggling with a 'second-wave' of rising cases, hospitalisations and deaths resulting from the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19), I wanted to make a comparative analysis between the data coming out of major European nations since the start of the pandemic.

I started by creating a Sweden COVID-19 dataset and now I'm looking at my own country, the United Kingdom.

The data comes from https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/ and I used the Developer's Guide to scrape the data, so it was a fairly simple process. The notebook that scapes the data is public and can be found here. Further information about data collection methodologies and definitions can be found here.

The data includes the overall numbers for the UK as a whole, the numbers for each of the devolved UK nations (Eng, Sco, Wal & NI), English Regions and Upper Tier Local Authorities (UTLA) for all of the UK (what we call Boroughs). I have also included a small table with the populations of the 4 devolved UK nations, used to calculate the death rates per 100,000 population.

As I've said for before - I am not an Epidemiologist, Sociologist or even a Data Scientist. I am actually a Mechanical Engineer! The objective here is to improve my data science skills and maybe provide some useful data to the wider community.

Any questions, comments or suggestions are most welcome! I am open to requests and collaborations! Stay Safe!
