This spring, a decision was made on distance learning at the country's universities and colleges. But this summer, a risk assessment was made before allowing students to return to campus at Umeå University.

Now that more and more people can conduct their studies with a physical presence, according to the infection control unit, the risk of increased spread of corona also increases. More and more people in the group 20-29 years have been found to have corona when sampling.

Well prepared

Assistant infection control physician Therese Thunberg at Norrland University Hospital in Umeå emphasizes that she is prepared and that Umeå University has received good help from the infection control unit to be able to receive the students this August.
