So far, 25 people in Västerbotten have been sampled, but no infection has been discovered so far. There is a readiness for triple sampling after the sports holiday. Many people are expected to return from regions where corona ravages, but no matter how many it may be moving.

Region Västerbotten's emergency coordinator works for high pressure. No decisions have yet been made on tents and mobile units for the sampling of possibly coronas-infected patients, but different solutions are being looked at.

- The rescue service, that is Umeå municipality, has a tent that we can use and it is likely to be set up near the infection clinic or that samples can be taken outdoors, says Caroline Helmersson.

Staffing is the biggest concern

In parallel with purely practical planning of space, there is a great nut to crack regarding staffing. Similarly, Region Västerbotten is now looking at the possibility of care places if many here would become infected and need to be taken care of.

- The biggest challenges are staffing, supply of materials and information, states Caroline Helmersson.

If the corona spreads in the county and if there is a larger number who need hospital care, there may be talk of rockades, that patients in other disease cases may need to be transferred to another hospital. Those affected are always expected to contact 1177 for assistance.
