Tromsø will give more orders

– The recommendations we made at the end of October did not help. It didn’t have the effect we wanted so we have to work even harder.

This was said by the Deputy Mayor of Tromsø, Marlene Berntsen Brathen, at a press conference on Friday.

She then adds that the municipality will hold an extraordinary meeting of the presidency next Tuesday, at which the new measures will be introduced.

Even if the measures come into effect from next week, we highly recommend that the measures are already in place now.

Read all the commands and recommendations in more information in the case.

It was the municipal doctor, Inger Hilda Trandim, who introduced the measures to be taken by the municipality.

The challenge when we design these measures is that they may have to go on for a while because we have a constant infection, we’re going into winter and we have so many elements that we’re not sure when we can cancel them, she says.

She then stressed that the main goal of introducing measures is not to reduce infection, but to reduce the burden on the health care system.
