The Swedish authorities deem the risk of Covid-19 spreading in Sweden to be very high. On March 10, the Public Health Agency of Sweden made official recommendations for people exhibiting any signs of respiratory infection, however minor, to avoid social contact to minimize the risk of the disease spreading. Symptoms include, but are not limited to, fever, coughing, sneezing, a sore throat, a stuffy or runny nose, headaches and muscle/body aches.

Based on this, Stockholm School of Economics has decided to deny access to anyone exhibiting symptoms of respiratory illness or a cold, no matter how minor. This applies to anyone visiting the premises, and regardless of whether they have traveled outside of Sweden or not. 

This decision has been made by the Stockholm School of Economics’ Crisis Management Team.
