In the southern parts of the country, low pollen levels have been measured, including Bräkne-Hoby, Gothenburg, Hässleholm, Kristianstad and Malmö, according to data obtained by the National Museum of Natural History.

It is a little earlier than normal and it is due to the slightly warmer temperatures in the country.

But Didrik Vanhoenacker comes with reassuring news - it does not have to mean more pollen because the hay fever season is early.
