On Sunday, it was confirmed that another person in Uppsala County has been infected by the new corona virus. This person has also traveled in northern Italy and been infected there. The person does not need to be cared for in a hospital but is isolated in the home, which has applied to the majority of the previously infected in the county.

Now the Infection Clinic and the Infection Protection Unit in Region Uppsala will investigate the cases further and identify which persons could possibly have been at risk of infection.

On February 27 and 28, the first two cases of corona infection in Uppsala were confirmed. In total, there are now six infected persons in the county. None of the infected should be seriously ill, but all are cared for in their homes.
