Swedish «Idol»: – Half of the participants corona infected

Another participant in the Swedish version of “Idol” is the corona infection.

It confirms sources opposite Aftonbladet.

It was last Tuesday, September 22, that the first case of infection among the participants was detected.

A total of five people have been confirmed infected with the virus since then, and now the Swedish newspaper claims that another participant is infected.

– All participants are in quarantine after some of them have tested positive for covid-19. It is one of the necessary measures taken to prevent the spread of infection, says producer for the program, Malin Knave, to the newspaper.

TV4, which broadcasts the program, held a crisis meeting last week where it was decided that the participants’ appearances in the broadcasts should be filmed in their hotel rooms instead of in the studio.

– You can not continue to participate in the competition if you do not take the isolation and restrictions seriously. We are in a serious situation. Both in the “Idol” editorial office and in society. To put the spread of infection and protect people’s health, we put first, the manufacturer continues to the newspaper.

TV4 writes on its Instagram that “all participants are fine according to the circumstances”.

– “Idol” should be as safe a recording location as possible. TV4 therefore follows the recommendations that exist, and will take further necessary measures to ensure that the participants do not infect each other or others, they write.
