Swedish healthcare annoyed with #COVID19 vaccine maker #Pfizer. The company says six in stead of the earlier planned five doses can be taken out of each sample; but medical staff puts serious question marks to its feasibility. #Sweden

Vaccination problems in Sweden. 2100 Moderna doses transported at too warm temperatures. And customs Denmark confiscated needles and ampoules on their way to Sweden. #COVID19 #Sweden

Snow weather in the North of Sweden causes lots of problems. Power is down in some parts. Train traffic is cancelled and authorities warn that everybody should stay at home. Tracked vehicles on stand-by to take over from regular ambulances. #sweden #extremeweather

About me

In 2006 I left my family, friends and the security of a relatively steady editorial job in the Netherlands to move to Sweden, for love. A heartbreak later I’m still around – having crisscrossed like crazy through my new land to make a travel guide book, adding a new career as a language teacher at elementary and lower secondary schools, becoming a freelance Scandinavia correspondent & fixer for Belgian and Dutch media. From Sweden I pop across the Baltic Sea, often to Poland where I sometimes live and work from.
