Denmark to help ease coronavirus restrictions further from June 8
09 May, 2020
Danish museums, amusement parks and cinemas will be permitted to reopen from June 8, the government said on Friday, after it struck a manage parliament how restrictions to curb the spread of COVID-19 could be eased further.
In the third phase of its reopening plan, Denmark may also raise the maximum number of individuals allowed to meet in public areas to between 30 and 50, up from a 10-person limit, it said.
Danish stores, schools for the oldest students and restaurants will be permitted to reopen in the coming weeks said the federal government late on Thursday as it enters the next phase of reopening after curbing the spread of the virus.
The 3rd reopening phase would only happen if the amount of infected and hospitalizations did not "increase more than expected," a statement from the Prime Minister's Office said.
Night clubs, music venues and gyms would remain shut before fourth phase of the reopening which is expected to begin by the start of August, it added.
Denmark was one of the primary countries to restrict public gatherings and close schools, restaurants and bars in a lockdown that quickly helped curb the spread of the virus, meaning it had been also among the first Europe to open up again.
So far, 10,083 people have been identified as having COVID-19 in Denmark, a country of 5.8 million people, and 514 have died of the condition, according to data from health authorities.
