Denmark is expanding restrictions

The spread of the infection is increasing in Denmark and authorities are now investing more and more to stop it. The second wave of infection has hit the country earlier than expected.

At this time, Denmark has 40 infected per 100,000 inhabitants and each affected person infects an average of 1.5 others with corona.

Young people are also affected. Right now, 14 percent of newly admitted covid-19 are in hospitals for 30 years.

Work more from home

Therefore, the strict rules extend from the capital area to all of Denmark.

Instead of allowing crowds of 500 people, the number is reduced to 50. Some exceptions can be made for sporting events.

– We urge all workplaces, both public and private, to allow employees to work from home as much as possible, says Mette Frederiksen at the press conference.

– Those who, after all, have to go to work are urged not to travel by public transport during peak hours. Walk or bike to work, if possible.

“Use common sense”

The message is that all Danes should take the spread of the infection very seriously, it is said.

– During the summer, social life became more normal, but now we have to meet fewer people again, says Mette Frederiksen.

– We do not establish a definitive figure on how many you can meet, but we want to encourage everyone to use their common sense.

The police will also expand their checks on the regulations followed.

Businesses affected by the strict new rules must be able to receive support from the government. The subject is now being discussed with other parties in the Folketing.
