– There is no reason to link monkey pox with covid-19 and all that it raises in people when it comes to concerns about the disease and social measures. There will be no restrictions with restrictions on how we live due to monkey pox. There are no such plans, says Hallengren SvD.
On the other hand, it is important to classify the disease as generally dangerous, the Minister believes, as it will then be subject to notification in accordance with the rules of the Communicable Diseases Act and it will be possible to trace and limit infection.
Other common dangerous diseases are, for example, salmonella, HIV and chlamydia.
