Of course the death rate is much higher...at this point in time. I think we should talk about this again at the end of the year because it seems premature to compare these numbers at the moment. As far as I understand, the lockdowns are only meant to prevent the medical systems from collapsing like what happened in Italy and France causing people to die just because they couldn't be treated at all. Almost everyone will eventually get infected at some point and the people that would die from it are the ones the Swedes decided should be protected (mostly the elderly and the ones with pre-existing conditions) the most and on the other hand, imposing good practices for the rest of their citizens to follow so they can continue to live and work while reasonably protecting themselves.
Again, let's compare the numbers at a later point before calling this or that a joke.

I may be a little bit paranoid, but I started last week to read the "1984" book again and this story about keeping track of customers purchasing used copies makes me think :

These could be the first steps to have a database of WHERE the information is...just in case you'd like, one day, to "RECTIFY" the history, by collecting, burning and printing that information again in a "CORRECTED" version, erasing every proof of what things originally were.

By looking at how they modified some movies, before the DVD release, I think it makes sense.
