- With this symbolic gift, the Speaker and the Riksdag would like to thank all healthcare employees for the great efforts and sacrifices made so far during the corona pandemic. Healthcare and care on Gotland have shown great flexibility and professionalism in these different times, says Governor Anders Flanking in a press release from the County Administrative Board on Gotland.

The Swedish National Day Foundation is responsible, among other things, for the official National Day celebrations. The principals of the foundation are Sweden's governors and HM King Carl XVI Gustaf is the foundation's patron.
