Almost two-thirds of all coronavirus cases diagnosed in Norway at week 52 were of the omicron variant.
In total, there were 52 omicron cases in Norway in week 6143, he writes National Institute of Public Health .
- The figures show a slight increase in the omicron variant over the holiday season. However, it is difficult to say whether these figures reflect the real situation of the last few days. The testing has been done much less than in the previous weeks and we will likely get a more accurate picture of the development of the infection now that it is past Christmas, says FHI's Line Vold department director in a press release.
Are you 18 years old or older? You are now given the opportunity to vaccinate with a refreshing dose. Then protection against severe COVID-19 disease lasts longer. At least 4,5 months must elapse between the second dose and the refresher dose.
Read more about a refreshing dose at fhi.no. And remember, the vaccine is free.
The virus variant dominated in the last week of the year in all counties in Norway with the exception of Agder. The highest proportion of cases was in Viken (74%) and Oslo (73,6%). Agder had the lowest share with 47,9%.
- We can see that areas with high spread of infection also have a high percentage of the omicron variant.
Now, the most important thing is that the unvaccinated take care of the first dose of the vaccine, and all those who took the second dose more than 20 weeks ago have taken a refreshing dose.
The National Institute of Public Health expects a large wave of infections in the coming weeks.
Here is an overview of the National Institute of Public Health regarding the share of omicrons for provinces.
Oslo - 73,6%
Viken - 74%
Agder - 47,9%
Innlandet - 52%
Møre og Romsdal - 66,7%
Nordland - 87% *

Troms and Finnmark - 88,9% *
Trøndelag - 58%
