In 1710, more than 40 percent of Stockholm's population is said to have died - 22,000 of the city's 55,000 inhabitants. In the corona pandemic year 2020, a total of 0.75 percent of the population in the city of Stockholm died (of all causes) - 7,341 out of 975,551.
These figures might change our perception a little:

|---|---|---|---|
| Stockholm City | 975 551 | 7 341 | 0.75 |
| Sweden | 10 336 343 | 98 124 | 0.95 |
