Chinanews, August 29. According to the British "Guardian" report, Denmark will cancel all COVID-19 prevention and control measures on September 10.
The Danish Ministry of Health announced that due to the country’s high vaccination rate, the new crown virus “no longer poses a serious threat to society”.

The Danish Minister of Health Magnus Hennike said in a statement on the 27th that “the epidemic has been brought under control and our vaccination has reached a record level.” “This is why we can abandon the fight against new coronary pneumonia. Special regulations introduced at the time".
However, he warned that even if Denmark is “in good condition now” and the epidemic is not over, the government will “act quickly” without hesitation if the epidemic again threatens the basic functions of society.
According to data from Our World in Data, Denmark is the country with the third highest vaccination rate in the European Union, with 71% of the population having received two doses of the new crown vaccine, following Malta (80%) and Portugal (73%).
In March 2020, Denmark was one of the first countries in Europe to implement a partial blockade. After tightening and relaxing the epidemic prevention restrictions during the epidemic, Denmark was also one of the first countries to start reopening.
Denmark launched the "New Crown Passport" on April 21, 2021. Since then, Danish restaurants, bars, cinemas, gyms, stadiums and hairdressing salons have provided any test results within 72 hours that can prove that they have been fully vaccinated. It is open to people who have been negative or have recovered after being infected with the new crown in the past 2 to 12 weeks.
