Earlier this month police launched an investigation three apparently healthy men who all worked at Northvolt died at home six months ago after changes at the company. It has not been established whether the deaths are related or a coincidence.
On Tuesday, police announced a fourth person died in July.
A fifth person also fell ill while working at the facility, police said.
Police have not labeled any of the deaths as suspicious, but one of the unconfirmed theories that has floated in the media is that they may have been exposed to something similar at work.
In January, a 33-year-old man was found dead in his bed after working an evening shift as a cleaner at Northvolt. A month later, a 19-year-old boy was also found dead in bed after his shift at the company. And in June 59 a 59-year-old man was found dead on his balcony.

The only things the three men seem to have in common is that their deaths cannot be explained, and that they all happened after working shifts at Northvolt’s flagship company. However, there is no evidence that their deaths are connected to their work at Northvolt.
“At this time, there is no real connection between any of the incidents, nor have we been able to ascertain what caused the incidents,” police said on Tuesday.
The investigation is ongoing.
