– We are seeing further spread of the infection and sadly we are starting to approach a second wave in Östergötland, says Magnus Roberg, assistant infection control physician and chief hygienist in SVT Nyheter Öst’s Östergötland Region.
In addition, he says that it is mainly the age group of 20 to 29 years that is responsible for the large proportion of the spread of the infection, but there is also a greater spread in the older ages.
– Now it is starting to appear in other age groups, says Magnus Roberg.
Increased spread of infection in various regions.
Stockholm and Uppsala previously reported an increase in the spread of the infection, which can now be seen in Östergötland as well, he says.
– Now we see that we are heading towards a similar increase, says Magnus Roberg.
However, few still need care in hospitals, which according to Roberg is mainly due to the fact that there are still many younger people who are infected.
Can it be relevant with greater restrictions?
– There is a possibility that the Public Health Agency could impose local restrictions if it is now withdrawn, he says.
