The experts: then comes the third wave
The strong spread of covid-19 this fall appears to be slowing down in Sweden.
At the same time, experts are warning of a third wave after the New Year, before the vaccine goes into effect.
– I think there is a risk that the infection will start to spread properly again if we don’t hold travel and private meetings properly on weekends, says Joacim Rocklöv, professor of epidemiology and public health sciences at Umeå University .
The region wants greater responsibility from the State
The regions have received some criticism during the pandemic. Partly because of the extended testing and partly because of the lack of protective gear this spring. They have also received criticism regarding Ivo’s criticism of elderly care, where it was mentioned that many sick elderly in nursing homes have not been personally examined by doctors.
Several regions now fear criticism regarding vaccination, writes SvD.
Åke Tenerz in the Västmanland region wants the state to bear greater responsibility and compares to this spring when mass testing was delayed. Only when FHM took “a collective approach” and bought buses, sampling kits and central labs, did it really get started, he says.
– It is clear that if you are going to have an effective and fast vaccination in the same way, probably seventeen, we, as regions, would appreciate it if you did the same there, that you had a central acquisition and a central organization with muscles that can launch such an organization. Said Tenerz to the newspaper.
Norwegians sue the state
One thousand Norwegians with huts in Sweden are suing the Norwegian state, VG reports.
The reason is that they want the quarantine requirement lifted, which they believe is disproportionate.
– We feel a bit discriminated against, we do, says Jostein Halle, who has a holiday home in Eda in Värmland.
According to him, it is possible to travel and keep your distance from the locals in the same way as if the hut had been located in Norway. The law firm representing the cottage owners believes that, in practice, most people are prohibited from spending the night on their property for leisure or even using it.
The decision on the continued quarantine demands was made by the Norwegian government in November.
