- What is coming now is the sports holiday with all this traveling.
There have been a lot of discussions, 'should we travel or should we not travel to the mountains?'
There is no ban on traveling in the country.
But a couple of regions have come up with their own local restrictions where it is recommended to avoid traveling in and out, especially Västerbotten.
We have no such thing in Blekinge, says the region's infection control doctor Bengt Wittesjö.
Warns of risks
The infection control doctor warns of the risks of travel.
- If you go to a ski resort now, you will meet people where there is a risk of covid and also with the mutated variants.
The seal has much of the British mutation and also a case of the South African variant, says Bengt Wittesjö.
Advises
Therefore, he has several pieces of advice for sports holidaymakers who still go on trips.
- To travel safely, which means that you travel in your own car with your own family and live in a cabin with your own family.
And that you stay outdoors and do not go to restaurants or hang out with others, says Bengt Wittesjö.
Is there any risk that sports holiday travelers will take the British virus mutation to Blekinge?
- It is a concern that exists throughout Sweden in that there are so many people who mix from different regions in the same places and then travel home again, says Bengt Wittesjö.
