In Skåne, there are stricter local restrictions, where it is a matter, among other things, to avoid indoor environments where many people gather. Staying in a shopping center is therefore something that should be avoided, according to the Skåne Region.
– We advise against it. For the purchase of food and medicine, you should roll, but other products, such as shoes and more, where your own judgment must decide, said Skåne Region infection control doctor Eva Melander ahead of Black Friday recently.
– It is directly inappropriate that many make a big sale in the business now, he continued.
Despite this, the pressure on the Malmö shopping center was high at times during Black Friday. The total number of visitors was less than last year, but in Emporia the gates were temporarily closed when there were too many visitors, according to Sydsvenskan.
15,000 visitors to the Triangle
There were also some congestion problems in Triangeln. Around 15,000 visitors are said to have visited the mall in central Malmö on Friday, a decrease of just over 40 percent from last year.
– Between 4 p.m. and sometime after 6:30 p.m., I thought it was too much. Above all, it is the young people who are a little worse at keeping their distance, but overall it was better than expected, Robert Felczak, manager of the center at the Triangeln shopping center, tells the newspaper.
However, at the beginning of Friday, it was quieter and there were no congestion problems in Malmö’s largest shopping center.
– I wouldn’t have gone in if there had been a lot of people inside. It was quiet there and many had mouth guards, visitor Cecilia Héctor, 49, told Kvällposten yesterday.
