Denmark to start easing coronavirus restrictions

Denmark says it will gradually lift restrictions put in place to fight the coronavirus, starting with the reopening of daycare nurseries, kindergartens and primary schools from April 15.

Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen says that according to health authorities “it is appropriate and justified to start a slow opening. But on condition that everyone keeps their distance and washes their hands.”

The reopening of schools will take place gradually, with kindergartens and primary schools opening from April 15 and middle and high schools waiting until May 10.

Bars, restaurants, nightclubs, shopping centers, hairdressers and massage parlors will remain closed, and gatherings of more than 10 people will still be prohibited.
