– seriously

Acting mayor, Lars Halvor Stockstad-Oserud, says he understands residents may be concerned.

– I myself also take the situation very seriously. Like the municipal superintendent, I also think we’ll be able to quell the outbreaks we have here now with the help of hard work on quarantine, testing and infection tracing. The municipal political and administrative administration is closely monitoring the situation and constantly evaluating whether there is a need to reintroduce local infection control rules. There is still no basis for this, and I sincerely hope that it is not and that everyone will contribute to limiting the spread of infection, Osrud said.
