Corona information
On this page we will collect all the information we have at our disposal regarding how you as a student at LNU are affected by the outbreak of the Corona virus (covid-19).
Remember that there might be differences in what’s happening in your home country and what’s going on where you are in Sweden. To avoid unnecessary rumour spreading, be sure to get your information from secure sources such as government agencies and reputable media, for ex The Public Health Agency, The goverment , The Local, and 1177

Information
The Health clinic also refers to the National Health guide 1177.se for guidance on COVID-19 and other illnesses. However, it is not so easy to navigate on the site as a non-Swedish speaker. 1177 is also a phone number. When not calling from a Swedish number, dial +46 771 11 77 00.
If you have tested positive for covid-19, you are obligated to inform your teacher whether you have had close contact with anyone else at the university during the last 24 hours before you first started showing symptoms. The university must collect certain information to get a good basis for decisions concerning whether we (temporarily or more long-term) need to change our study forms, alternatively, in an extraordinary situation, shut down.

If you need to pick up a welcome pack or visit us in another case, contact us in advance.

Med anledning av de lokala råden för Region Kronoberg och Region Kalmar har vi bestämt att ställa in medlemskaffet på båda orterna tills vidare. Vi avråder vi från alla former av sociala sammankomster så som fester, sittningar, fysiska möten och andra event som innebär att man träffas flera samtidigt.
Examples of measures taken by the housing companies are not to deal with faults in the apartments if the person living there is cold or ill. In that case they only handle emergency matters. They also encourage residents to avoid visiting their offices if possible.

CSN kommer att betalas ut som vanligt så länge som universitetets verksamhet fortskrider. Vid de fall där undervisningen sker via digitala läroformer kommer universitetet att meddela ändringarna till CSN och man kommer fortfarande att få utbetalda lån och bidrag som innan.
