目的是概述瑞典战略背后的后唯物主义和后现代瑞典的流行病学思维和心态。从长远来看，目的不是调查瑞典对这一流行病的处理情况。对群体免疫的过度自信、对大流行中需要以社区为中心的方法的个人责任的过度自信、对循证医学的过度自信以及忽视与世界卫生组织和其他国家的协调可能与后唯物主义价值观和后现代主义有关，包括反对现代权威、理性和科学，以及对老一辈人的反传统主义立场。 COVID-19 流行病学和后现代主义可能是一个危险的组合。
The aim is to outline the underlying epidemiological thinking and mentality in post-materialist and postmodern Sweden behind the Swedish strategy. The aim is not to investigate the handling of the pandemic in Sweden in the long-run. Overconfidence in herd immunity, overconfidence in individual responsibility in a pandemic needing community-centered approaches, overconfidence in evidence-based medicine and neglect to coordinate with the WHO and other countries may be associated with post-materialist values and postmodernism including opposition against modern authority, rationality and science, and also an anti-traditionalist stance towards older generations. COVID-19 epidemiology and postmodernism may be a dangerous combination.
