It’s sad that you don’t mention that the new Alzheimer’s medicine is developed by a Swedish pharmaceutical company, Bioarctic, which they have licensed the rights to Eisai and Biogen. This is probably one of the biggest things that has happened to Swedish pharmaceutical research this decade.

Hey! Here we have a longer article about it.
Explosion in a gate in Norrköping you can read. Which street?
Peter
Hey! Here the police write more about the explosion and where it occurred.
Now that the snow and wind are blowing outside, it suits me to surf around and plan the spring plantings! Think how much money you save by cultivating yourself for the whole year’s use. Now I have the privilege of having my own land, but in the past I have had to cultivate a plot of land both with relatives and friends. Take care of the people and then enjoy what you have grown.

It is not only infants who are at risk of becoming seriously ill from the RS virus, even the elderly >65 years of age can be severely affected. Why is nothing mentioned about it. The weekly report from the Public Health Authority on the number of cases is terrible.
26% of them are >65 years and older.
Emergency care is hard hit!
Stay home if your child is sick, is my advice. Don’t go to work and leave a sick child with grandparents…
Emergency
Why do you go to the emergency room if you have the flu?
How was it with the thing where you are they if in the past you get sick call 1177 in the first place and ask for advice. Hope our evening and weekend ends like they had at some health centers will come back.
Ingalena Eriksson
Hey! You’re right about 1177. The regions still urge people to first call 1177 for advice and guidance – unless it’s a life-threatening case.
