Denmark To Lift Covid-19 Restrictions on Feb 1

The Danish health minister, Magnus Heunicke said its government plans to lift Covid restrictions on February 1.

“I would like… Covid-19 to no longer be categorised as a disease dangerous to society as of February 1”, Heunicke wrote in a letter to lawmakers, proposing the de facto lifting of all domestic restrictions, such as mask-wearing and early closings for bars and restaurants etc.

The government’s decision, which is subject to parliamentary approval, will be the most far-reaching easing of curbs seen among the Nordic countries.

People won’t be needing to present vaccine passes upon entry of restaurants, Commuters can take the bus without having to wear a face mask and shops can lift limits on customer numbers etc.

In addition, while the number of people hospitalised with a Covid infection continues to rise, the Danish Health Authority said 35 percent of those who were actually in the hospital are for ANOTHER DIAGNOSIS.
