We learn to live with the crown pandemic. More than most of us thought was possible just a month ago.
In an interview with Dagens Nyheter this week, Prime Minister Stefan Löfven says that it can be difficult to make trips in the summer due to the crown crisis, not only abroad but also at home.
– We probably haven’t been through this this summer, Stefan Löfven tells Dagens Nyheter.
They are not exactly the signals that a national visitor industry wants to hear. Everyone understands that the tourist summer is not what it used to be, but everyone hopes that the travel regulations that apply at the moment will not become a rule in the coming months.
But with an unknown virus, it is difficult, if not impossible, to tell about the future. This week, Öland Roots announced that it was canceling. Ulf Lundell does not go on tour. Lars Winnerbäck has already canceled.
It’s only real to realize: It’s almost a utopia to believe in major folk festivals this summer, whether it’s town parties, sporting events, or concerts. That way it is a lost summer.
But, of course, the focus must be on the ambition of public health authorities to keep covid-19 under control for the health system to agree. Now even WHO has highlighted Sweden as a good example.
Michael Ryan, head of crisis preparedness at the World Health Organization, said this week:
– Sweden’s way of acting may be the model of the future on how to deal with an infection.
It will be some time before we know the full extent of the crown pandemic and can say with more certainty which countries have acted correctly.
But one that we know, to make a parody of Carl von Linné: this summer will be completely different from other summers.
We can all try to make the best of the situation. We can welcome the beautiful May, stay in nature, follow the recommendations of the authorities and wait for the day when life can return to normal. However, sooner rather than later, public health and healthcare options to care for the sick should come first.
