Abstract
After declaring a pandemic by the World Health Organization in 2020 due to the SARS COV 2, countries have opted for measures to help control the number of infections and diseases caused by the virus. One of the most used strategies was confinement, however, certain countries preferred not to agree on this strategy and seek group immunity. This article analyzes the cases of Sweden, the Netherlands and Brazil and contrasts with the data of countries that have decided to confine themselves. The sample includes 16 countries. The results show that the strategy of non-confinement has reached growth factor and index of diseases statistically equal or lower than countries that have opted for the confinement.
