New SLL figures released Tuesday afternoon show that 9,585 people are now confirmed infected with covid-19 in the Stockholm region. So far, 1,688 people with confirmed covid-19 have died in the county.
The Stockholm region has previously stated that there has been an over-representation of infected people in the Järva area in the north-western part of the city. But according to the new figures, the rate of increase in the number of infected people has started to decrease in the Rinkeby-Kista and Spånga-Tensta districts.
Instead, see the region now how this week areas like Nacka, Skärholmen, Skarpnäck, Upplands-Bro and Ekerö have a slightly higher rate of increase.
– When looking at the number of deceased people, it should be compared with the population, the number of cases, the age, the prevalence of underlying diseases and the period of time that the infection has spread in the municipality or the district area, Infection control doctor Per Follin in Smittskydd Stockholm says in a press release.
– It is clear that the danger of the crown is far from over. The spread of infection is ongoing throughout the county. Of course, it is positive that the spread of infection continues to decline in Fort Järva, but now it has to hold up, says the Anna Starbrink Health Region Council (L).
“It is clear that the danger from the crown is far from over,” says the region’s council of health Anna Starbrink (L).

– The variation between different municipalities and districts between different weeks confirms that the virus exists throughout the region. It is still extremely important that we all continue to shoulder our responsibility to reduce the pressure on health care and safeguard risk groups. Stay out, keep your distance and stay together, continue.
Per Follin in Smittskydd Stockholm He stresses that the most important way to reduce the number of cases with covid-19 is for Stockholmers to follow the advice of the Public Health Authority.
– Do not meet with more people living together at home, avoid public transport and those who have the opportunity to continue working remotely. The most important thing is to avoid visiting the elderly and other risk groups who need to be prepared to isolate themselves for a few more weeks, he says.
The report is prepared for the reported number of deceased as of midnight between May 10 and 11 and also reports the number of deceased and infected relative to the number of inhabitants.
