It was a happy and relaxed Victoria who arrived at Västerås Castle on Thursday morning. She was here to find out how the pandemic has affected healthcare and companies in the county.
Actually, the Crown Princess would have come here in the company of Prince Daniel. But he had a cold and therefore had to stay at home.
- It is a common autumn cold he has. It will be easy like that during the autumn when you have children at preschool, laughs the Crown Princess.
- But we must stick to the recommendations and continue to be careful, she adds.
The royal family has these days started to travel around the country to update themselves on the covid-19 situation in the counties. On Thursday, Västmanland was on the schedule as the first stop on the tour for Crown Princess Victoria.
After a visit to the castle when, among others, the infection control doctor told about the situation in healthcare, the Crown Princess visited Västmanland's Theater and Mälardalen University.
- The Crown Princess' visit means a lot to us. It feels good that the royal family wants to get an overall picture of the situation in the country, says Governor Minoo Akhtarzand.
How does it feel to go out into the country again to meet people on the spot?
- It's fun, of course even if it's not the same as before the pandemic. You must not be social in the same way as before and we must also continue to think about keeping our distance and being careful. But there will also be other times again in the future, says the Crown Princess.
