Larvik Nora Mørk read about the epidemic and are well informed. The team is known among national team players.

– Yes. We have heard and talked about it and we would like to know more about it. If it’s too big a risk to take, or too great a risk to be infected, so I expect that Olympiatoppen enters and informs to take care of us practitioners to go.

– there is a concern that I think.

Information

so far has not handball girls have been informed of Olympiatoppen.

– We have not been in contact with Olympiatoppen about this yet. I’ve only read about what has been in the papers. We have tried to follow, and we will not let this pass us by unnoticed. We are a little worried.

– You may particularly concerned that woman?

– Yes, of course. Now tilts I nearly 25 years, and it’s not just kids who are on the schedule in the next few years, but I would still like to know more about it. It’s a great chance to take, and I want to know if we get enough protection and we are sheltered enough. I reckon that the Olympic Committee (IOC) take proper control around this. It put my trust in.

As planned

– You think it’s right that the Olympics will be held?

– There will of course all depends on how much risk there is for that people can be infected. I do not think it’s ideal that so many women going to the Olympics to compete, and then there’s something else we think. We were in Rio last year and all have taken the vaccine takes. Then it is still uncomfortable that we should be worried about being infected.

Stroke player Heidi Løke think the Olympics are going to go as planned.

– This is something to think about, and one should not take any risks. I would like to know more about it before eventually travel to the Olympics, but this is not something we use a lot of energy. I trust that we get the information we need, says Løke.
