Sweden is seeing an increase in COVID-19 cases and healthcare can expect an increase in pressure over the summer, the health minister said on Thursday, SİA reports citing Reuters.
"Quite a few are ill even though we are in the middle of the summer. We also see a small increase in the number of COVID-19 patients who need hospital care and intensive care," Minister of Health Lena Hallengren told a news conference.
"However, we don't see the type of impact we saw earlier in the pandemic, I want to stress that," she said.
Cases in Sweden are hard to track as testing is limited to people receiving healthcare but the Health Agency said it estimated infections were increasing by 30-40% for each of the last few weeks, but from low levels. Hallengren did not present any restrictions but urged people to stay at home if sick.
