All of them have had increasing infection rates and are now above the limit of less than 20 confirmed cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the last two weeks.
Sweden’s Jämtland region, which borders Trøndelag in the west, recorded 26 cases per 100,000 inhabitants on 7 September. Örebro west of Stockholm had 31.8 cases per 100,000, southern Denmark 26.7 and Kainuu in Finland 29.1.
The incidence for Hungary is now 33.1 and Slovakia 23.1.
Countries and regions that were in the red in the last assessment are not subject to an assessment of any relief this week.
The government decides during the week which entry quarantine will be applied. The changes will take effect from midnight until Saturday, September 12. The government has previously followed the advice of NIPH.
