Denmark has decided that Covid-19 is as relevant as any other respiratory illness, scrapping all quarantine requirements and discontinuing testing those hospitalized with a respiratory infection for Covid-19.

“We can now take even more steps towards normal conditions in relation to the Covid-19 response in both the community and the health service,” the Healthy Authority’s Line Raahauge Hvass said, as reported by The Local.

“There is no longer any need for very specific requirements for Covid-19 in relation to other diseases, for example for a person with a positive Covid-19 test to isolate for at least four days.” 

The update means hospitalized individuals with respiratory infections will no longer be tested for Covid, suggesting the Danish government no longer considers Covid stats relevant. 

Denmark is a leading country in scrapping Covid-19 vaccine campaigns and ending the hysteria around the novel coronavirus.

Earlier this year, The Counter Signal reported that Denmark stopped offering the Covid vaccine to people under 50, except for those considered high risk. 

“The purpose of vaccination is not to prevent infection with covid-19, and people under 50 are therefore currently not being offered booster vaccination,” the Danish Health Authority said at the time.

“In addition, younger people aged under 50 are well protected against becoming severely ill from covid-19, as a very large number of them have already been vaccinated and have previously been infected with covid-19, and there is consequently good immunity among this group.”

The statement goes on to say that people under 50 are generally not at high risk of becoming severely ill from Covid.

In November, the Health Authority decided that people under 50 could get a Covid-19 vaccine if they desired, but it wouldn’t be free — they’d have to pay for it. Those above 50 or under 50 and at high risk are still eligible to receive a free Covid vaccine.
