- In general, we are currently awaiting and adhering to the general recommendations, says national team physician Magnus Oscarsson to TT and continues:

- We take normal precautions during our travels to avoid infections. This applies to hand hygiene, the usual when you are at airports, aircraft, eating stations ... You should avoid handshakes and large crowds, and so on.

Follows the development

In total, some 2,800 people have died and more than 83,000 have been infected since the coronavirus outbreak in the Chinese city of Wuhan at the end of last year. The national team skiers naturally follow the developments in terms of distribution.

- I follow the reporting. Otherwise, I try not to put so much concern but rather focus on what to do here and now. I feel safe with the team we have all around. Do we need to make some restrictions and I am absolutely sure that we will get the right advice, says Charlotte Kalla to SVT Sport and continues:

- We are careful about hand hygiene and how we should behave. Then we are also careful with sleep, diet and that recovery is as optimal as it can be because we are subjected to a tough physical strain.
