Remember these corona measures

The Covid infection rate has been increasing in Norway, and Oslo municipality has enhanced the contingency for Oslo (link currently only in Norwegian). AHO needs to keep this in mind when we finish up this semester. Here is an update of what you need to remember.
 
New national regulations for quarantine and isolation
The Government announced new regulations for quarantine and isolation that applies from 1 December. (link currently only in Norwegian)
 
  • If you are living with someone infected you must stay at home in quarantine until you have a negative test (this also applies to similar close contacts like significant others not living together). This applies to adults, vaccinated and not vaccinated. If you are vaccinated you can end the quarantine when you have a negative test, but obliged to test you again no later than after seven days. If you are not vaccinated you can end the quarantine if you have a negative test, but obliged to test you again every day for seven days with a quick test or PCR test. Children who are living with someone who is infected are not obliged to take a test, but it is recommended.
     
  • If you are infected with covid-19 you need to be in isolation for five days. This applies regardless of whether you are vaccinated or not. Until today, the requirement has been two days for vaccinated without symptoms. In addition to this, you must be free of fever for 24 hours before you can end the isolation.
 
Infection measured in the workshops
In the workshops, it's important that you remember to wash your hands, use disinfection and wear a face mask if you can not keep a one-meter distance.
 
Self-tests
We are happy that many of you have used the self-tests, but unfortunately, we have now run out. We are working on acquiring more tests and aim to have this in stock no later than the start of the semester in January.
 
Remember the Corona measures at AHO:
 
  • Stay home if you are sick.
  • Wash hands thoroughly and often.
  • Take a self-test if you suspect corona infection.
  • Keep AHO tidy so daily cleaning can be done.
 
We hope you all get a safe and healthy Christmas season.
 
 
Best regards,
