Malmö is the latest team SHL team to suffer from several cases of corona.
Thus, the team joins the growing crowd of teams that have had to move in several matches due to the virus.
At the moment, only a few of the players have received positive answers, but the club believes that it is only a matter of time before more people become ill.
- The doctor believes that there is a great risk that many will get it, says Malmö's sports director Patrik Sylvegård to SVT Sport.
Should have acted differently
His own players do not currently show any serious symptoms, but given the current situation in Skåne as well as in the country as a whole, Sylvegård believes that SHL and the league should have taken other measures than what has been done.
- We try to make the best of the situation while we have respect for the disease.
If we look in Skåne, there are 700-800 people inside right now.
We have friends and sponsors who have been really bad and passed away, so it is important that we try to take care of everything well, he says.
- But this is what this season looks like.
I was clear quite early on that other decisions would have been made, that the series would have been closed.
But now it is as it is.
We have a TV agreement and there are promotions and relegations, which means that the season will be very extreme.
