Municipal chief physician Jostein Helgeland in Haugesund municipality advises, among other things, pure shopping trips, as well as football and concert trips to the capital during the autumn holidays.
– There is little infection in Haugesund now and we look at it as a yellow area. I am more afraid that people will come here with infection than that they will be infected here, he says Haugesunds Avis.
NRK has spoken with several municipal chief physicians in Rogaland who are also skeptical of unnecessary Oslo trips. Municipal chief physician in Stavanger Runar Johannessen is among them.
– The most important thing is to keep a good distance from people you do not live with, and not walk among people if you are ill. Going to Oslo to party in the city now is not recommended, he says channels.
There is no national travel council, but also the assistant health director, Espen Rostrup Nakstad, asks people to pay attention to the infection situation.
