Not sure if this is the appropriate thread to ask this in, but this seems to be the only active Covid-era thread on Denmark. :) |

It's business as usual, no restrictions except at the border.

I'm here now. No restrictions, everything open and crowded. The only sign of the pandemic, to me, is that there are still a lot of signs referring to "take away available" (more than pre-pandemic and no doubt added in the past year+) and lines / spots on the floor in the shop queues signaling to keep distance.

Thanks! Are hotels or restaurants/bars/shops/etc. asking for some sort of digital pass (with a QR code)? E.g. The kind one would receive from an EU country.

There is no longer any requirement to document vaccination or to provide a negative test. None.
What you do have to be careful about, however, is you're driving. Denmark passed a new law earlier this year, targeted at those who drive like lunatics. "Lunatic" driving is defined as exceeding one of the following:
The following cases have been brought to trial, and the judges have given the police the authority confiscate and sell the cars:
So, whatever you do, drive carefully. If you get caught in a rented car breaking the "lunatic driving" law, the car will be confiscated and the rental company will send you a bill for the value of the car. |

If you do that your car will be confiscated, sold and the state will keep the money. Doesn't matter if you've borrowed a friends car, if the car is rented or leased, if it's a company vehicle or if it's a foreign registered car.

Denmark has reopened to "lunatic" bicyclists too. They seem to be as "safe" as ever before the pandemic. :D

“Finland, Denmark and Sweden are limiting the use of Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine in young people over concerns around rare cardiovascular side effects.”
I am not young enough to be that worried! Denmark though throughout the pandemic has a pattern of being very cautious about approval of vaccines, and yet vaccination is the official reason the country has done away with all domestic restrictions. Nordic countries are restricting the use of Moderna’s Covid vaccine. Here’s why https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/08/nord...d-vaccine.html |
Denmark now has Sweden as a “green country” for purposes of the pandemic.

The use of Moderna’s vaccine even for the elderly seemed pretty limited (for supply reasons) in Denmark and in Sweden. So even before this decision, it likely would have been the case that Pfizer’s vaccine would have been the one in general use at schools, even if just for administrative ease.
Moderna, whose coronavirus vaccine appears to be the world’s best defense against Covid-19, has been supplying its shots almost exclusively to wealthy nations, keeping poorer countries waiting and earning billions in profit. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/09/b...d-vaccine.html |
