– It is likely that this winter we will have a wave of covid-19 and epidemics of influenza, RSV infection and perhaps also whooping cough. The latter three may be larger than we are used to from before the pandemic. This is what FHI writes on its website. On Monday, news was able to tell about a new omicron variant of the virus called BF.7 which is spreading in Norway. Now it may look like there will be another winter with more corona infection again. Can be a big burden on the hospitals – The burden on the hospitals, including their children’s wards, can be big. If several epidemics or waves occur at the same time, the burden can be significant. If they come one after the other, the burden can be prolonged, writes FHI. The municipal health service can also be heavily burdened. FHI further writes that the waves and epidemics may start before Christmas, but most likely the biggest burden will be in January and February.
