SLU news

New routines for testing and tracing from 1 November

Published: 02 November 2021

New guidelines from the Public Health Authority are in effect.

As of 1 November, SLU will end the local contact tracing procedures that have been in place since September 2020. This is in line with the new guidelines from the Public Health Authority stating that those who are fully vaccinated no longer need to get tested if they show symptoms (https://www.folkhalsomyndigheten.se/the-public-health-agency-of-sweden/communicable-disease-control/covid-19/protect-yourself-and-others-from-spread-of-infection/what-applies-from-1-november/).

Avoid spreading infections regardless of whether it’s Covid or not, and stay at home if you have symptoms that may be a sign of a respiratory infection.

We will also delete the functional email addresses that have been used during the pandemic. From now on, use the regular contact details for our various support functions.
