Other countries in Europe have demanded vaccination passports for some time now. On Wednesday Sweden too introduced a requirement for vaccination passports at indoor events for more than 100 people.

– Our staff are being threatened directly and indirectly just now. There is a feeling of insecurity among the staff, and that is something we must deal with, says Helen Ortman.

”If you have a doctor's certificate stating that you cannot be vaccinated on medical grounds, then that, along with proof of identity, is valid and entitles you to admission”

What do the people who phone in and make threats say?

– People are disappointed and say that the community is being split up, people are being treated differently and that doesn't feel right. It's something provocative, a feeling of unfairness.

– If you have a doctor's certificate stating that you cannot be vaccinated on medical grounds, then that, along with proof of identity, is valid and entitles you to admission, says Helen Ortman.
