Swedish Govt Accused of Covering Up Coronavirus Pandemic Documents
Sweden’s Coronavirus Commission has accused the government of withholding access to certain documents regarding the response to the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.
The Coronavirus Commission, which was appointed by the government to review the response to the pandemic in the summer of 2020, has been critical of the government’s response to the pandemic in the past and now claims it has not been given access to requested documents.
According to a report from the Swedish broadcaster SVT, the documents in question relate to notes and minutes from around 250 different meetings as part of a crisis group that involved the secretaries of various ministries. The government has claimed that they did not actually record the minutes from the meetings.
Health and Social Affairs Minister Lena Hallengren argued that the group did not actually make decisions regarding the pandemic saying: “They do not make decisions at their meetings, but are a group to inform themselves and discuss.” – READ MORE
