- The pandemic has meant losses and major changes for many of us, and the need to remember those who were close to us is great, but try if possible to choose a day other than the Halloween weekend for your visit, says Jan Smedjegård who is an infection control doctor at Region Västmanland .

Risk of congestion

The region writes in a press release that it sees a risk of congestion in cemeteries, and its parking lots, but also in public transport.

- If we spread our visits, we create space for everyone who wants to visit their memorial site while we reduce the risk of the spread of infection, says Jan Smedjegård.
