Sweden has the highest death rate per capita of all developed nations.

  Where is that stat? The sources I have seen do not show that.

    The stat that they're specifically referring to is the case fatality rate, but that has a lot more to do with the denominator (Sweden's utter failure to test) than the numerator (actual number of deaths).

  While current Swedish strategy carries a high risk of bringing it to that point, that statement is absolutely false right now. Swedish deaths per 1 million are currently 102, significantly lower than Spain (397), Italy (348), France (241), Belgium (383), etc. Source: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries

  I'd like to believe that Belgium, Italy, France and others in Europe are also developed.
