Health authorities do not know how severe this year's flu season will be, but school in Oslo is safe. Now all school staff are offered a free vaccine.

- When we know that the Oslo students are most affected by the pandemic, it is important that we do everything in our power to make this school year a normal one. That is why we now offer vaccines to everyone who works in schools, says Oslo school principal Marte Gerhardsen.

Thanks to last year's morbidity measurements, last season's levels were historically low getting sick with the flu. This means that while this year's flu infection is in full swing, the population offers no protection whatsoever.

They are offered a free flu vaccine

City councilor for education and knowledge Sunniva Holmås Eidsvoll says she has received feedback that symptoms and illnesses among employees schools and kindergartens are a challenge.

- I am glad that we can provide this support to the school staff. We also encouraged other regions to offer flu vaccines to workers in both municipal and private kindergartens, says the city councilor.
