Tromsø Municipality’s recommendations to the population regarding the control of infection in Covid-19

Recommendations for individuals

The municipality of Tromsø recommends that all residents over the age of eighteen:

∙ To reduce the number of people you are with in social contexts during the week

∙ Stay away from others outside the home when they are in a public place.

The municipality of Tromsø recommends that no more than 30 participants take part in special events in a private space inside the house. This recommendation applies regardless of age, but except for children’s birthdays and similar events for children where there is a necessary number of adults as facilitators.

Recommendation to employers

The municipality of Tromsø recommends that all employers:

∙ To facilitate the use of digital meetings where possible and appropriate to avoid arranging social gatherings of employees across the company

Recommendation for the organizers

The municipality of Tromsø recommends that all organizers consider anti-infection related to their event.

This means ensuring that there are enough spaces so that people do not have to stand too close to each other and that it is easier to sit where possible.

We also recommend an overview of the participants and the ability to provide notification if infection is subsequently detected and manual alcohol readily available.

Organizers must also report the use of bandages when people are not in their seats.

Recommendation for restaurants

In addition to the provisions in the regulations, the municipality of Tromsø recommends that restaurants with or without a license to serve alcoholic beverages as far as possible ensure that the table is set for all guests even before 17:00 and that the serving takes place on the table.

Recommendations for this sport

The municipality of Tromsø recommends postponing or canceling tournaments and conferences with participants over 18 years of age. Singles matches can be played.

For tournaments/conferences with participants under 18 years of age, it is recommended to avoid spectators other than parents.

For many subsequent trainings/matches/events at the facility, it is recommended that good arrangements be made for the audience and participants of the previous event to leave the facility well in advance of the start of the next event. The reason for this is to avoid large gatherings, as well as to avoid gatherings of different groups.

For matches outside the best sports, it is recommended to limit the audience. The audience must be seated. Otherwise, the requirement to use face masks when not sitting in public will apply. It is also important to ensure the distance between people in a potential booth queue.

For unstructured sports, we recommend sticking with your regular teammates.

Other Recommendations

The municipality of Tromsø recommends that swimming pools and fitness centers help those present, with the exception of children and family members, to keep their distance from one another. This should be done through information and, if necessary, by reducing the number of participants

Choir and army exercises have been shown to be associated with an increased risk of infection. In these activities, a special focus on infection control, including ensuring distance between participants, is encouraged.
