Facts about corona certification

The verifiable certificate contains QR codes, which can be verified.
On Monday 14th June, the government opened the 3rd phase using Corona certification for major events. This applies to festivals, football matches and coastal trips, for example.
Certification has two different perspectives: a simple vision for domestic use and a vision to cross the border in the EU and EEA region.
The simple scene mainly shows whether you have a green or red level regardless of the cause. At a second glance there is more detailed information on the vaccine, test results or if you have Govit-19.
Green status does not mean exemption from entry isolation.
The Corona certificate was ready for domestic use on June 11th. Those who have been fully vaccinated and have had Govt-19 for the past six months are exempt from entry isolation.
As a general rule, travelers to Norway must be isolated at a suitable location or in a secluded hotel. The EEA / Schengen and the United Kingdom (so-called yellow countries / regions) have exemptions from isolation only for those in low-infection areas / regions.
The Norwegian Directorate of Health, the National Institutes of Public Health, the Norwegian Health Network and the Directorate of E-Health have collaborated on the development of the corona certificate.
The certificate is at helsenorge.no. There it can be downloaded or printed on a mobile phone.

High daily infection record in Finland

In Finland, there are higher infection rates recorded in recent weeks.

As of Thursday, 1,024 new infections had been reported in the country.

He writes that this is the maximum number of infections recorded in a day after an outbreak Reuters.

In the past two weeks, 129 new cases of infection have been reported per 100,000 people in the country, ECTC figures show.

A few weeks ago, there were infection rates in Finland Very low in the world, In terms of population.

The cause of the outbreak is the spread of delta variation.

About 5.5 million people live in Finland. Nearly half are fully vaccinated. Nearly 4 million people have been vaccinated. So far, 995 people in the country have died from the corona virus due to the epidemic.

The figures on the map are the average figures for the last seven days. There are no exact daily statistics.

Last week, the Finnish government, led by Prime Minister Channa Marin, decided that 12-15 year olds should be vaccinated soon. This is to avoid closing schools in the fall.

Values range

Limits on the loss of green color are linked to the number of victims per hundred people in the last two weeks.

A limit goes to 50 victims. Another limit goes to 75 victims. The reason for the existence of two limitations is that the ratio of positive samples is also included in the estimate.

If an average of one to 4 percent of samples return positive in the last two weeks, a country will remain green until it reaches 50 infectious diseases.

If the average of the samples in the last fourteen days is less than one percent, the green color does not fade until the number of victims reaches 75.
