Regardless, Sweden has instituted some lockdown measures and it's not everything-is-open.

And reading Shap's experience, I wouldn't risk the chance of infection even if it is survivable. Ever had a bad stomach flu? Goes away in a couple of days. Imagine feeling like that for up to 3 weeks. Someone tells you, "don't worry man, you won't die from it", is small comfort.
I'll let you know if my parents have the antibody for it, if the test is ever available. They both caught a bad flu, tested not as a flu, February 8th and lasted 3 weeks including a hospital visit because of the dry cough. That is where the negative flu result came from.
