- Linköping has an agreement with the other 12 municipalities in the county where we procure the protective equipment that is needed, says Paul Håkansson, municipal director in Linköping.

Since the beginning of the pandemic

The municipality of Linköping took over responsibility for purchasing protective equipment already at the beginning of the pandemic, and Paul Håkansson sees this as an advantage because the municipality can then shop from entrepreneurs in the county or in the vicinity of the county. The downside is that the protective equipment is desirable so where the large stock is located is kept secret.

- If you collect essential equipment, you do not want it to be subjected to arson, so we try to stay low on these places. This is one of the reasons why there is a photo ban, says Paul Håkansson.
