Here in Sweden your workplace will pay 80% of your salary for the first 7 days, and then if you are still sick, you need to get a doctor's note and then the state will pay you instead.

Also if your kid is sick you can be home with 80% salary paid by the state.

This is a very elegant solution, but unfortunately it's a productive use of our tax dollars so we'll never do that here in the U.S.
