This is excellent news, with Sweden planning to join them too

Seems sensible

Snowcrops · 04/02/2022 19:50

Great news!

AnyFucker · 04/02/2022 19:52

Yay

Skinnyankles · 04/02/2022 19:53

They have only just passed the peak of their infections. Hopefully other countries will follow soon

There has been talk on here that it's ok for Denmark as everybody there lives alone or something.
I can't believe that's true, I think the news is very encouraging.

toomuchlaundry · 04/02/2022 19:55

About a third of people live alone in Sweden

bumblefeline · 04/02/2022 19:56

I was just about to mention they all live alone Smile

Hope they have HEPA filters or the bodies will just pile up.

Hope it goes well for them, more will follow suit I think.

It says in that article over 80% of the population over 5 have had 2 vaccines. I assume their schools (which have much smaller class sizes, as in number of pupils) are probably in a much better state than ours

Sparklingbrook · 04/02/2022 19:58

Well that's great news then because they can all have their friends round and not be alone any more.

toomuchlaundry · 04/02/2022 20:01

I seem to remember when all this started that social distancing didn’t really need to be introduced as they do that naturally.

SirChenjins · 04/02/2022 20:02

Around a third of Danish people work from home compared to the EU average of around 12% according to this www.statista.com/statistics/1275888/denmark-working-from-home/ so less potential to transmit maybe?

Blubells · 04/02/2022 20:08

Encouraging! Especially considering how high their cases still are!

toomuchlaundry · 04/02/2022 20:42

Think they are keeping masks in healthcare and nursing homes

AnyFucker · 04/02/2022 20:45

Hope they have HEPA filters or the bodies will just pile up

Is this a fucking joke ?

Taswama · 04/02/2022 20:45

So can I go there on holiday or do my kids need to be double vaxed?

MarshaBradyo · 04/02/2022 20:48

Great news

Yes it is, don't worry.

but what about the mitigations which will prevent millions of Danish becoming disabled and the economy tanking........

Whelmed · 04/02/2022 21:40

I think by summer most of Europe inc UK will have dropped the restrictions.

2X4B523P · 04/02/2022 21:42

😷💉 and ventilation

Ah yes, all those 'sensible mitigations' that every country on earth other than England insisted on keeping, because they care about each other.

Just to be clear there are children in danish schools and they didn’t come to the stork! I don’t think all danish people spend all their life two metres away from people that didn’t live in the household they were born into they must get close to strangers sometime or how do relationships happen and these children born!

..honestly I know nationally stereotyping is fun and all but no danish people didn’t socially distance before the pandemic..like everyone else stranger talked to each other became fRienda, people met people they had never met before and became partners and lovers..I promise it’s normal the world over and how the world survives!!😂🤣

Dghgcotcitc · 04/02/2022 22:53

And how do they have sex at two meters? Is it all artificial insemination?…seriously it isn’t possible for people to social distancing their whole life and form new relationships including sexual ones!! It’s funny but shows how pro lockdowners never really got it. Talk me through it child born in 2020 grows up never getting within two meters of a stranger (so no one other than parents or sibling) where do new little humans come from?!…no no nation on the planet didn’t get close to stranger because new relationships are at the very centre of our exsistance! No article on random news site will convince me otherwise I need to see no babies before you can achieve that!
