COVID: Denmark closes theatres and museums as Omicron cases surge | Euronews
The Danish government said they would close theatres, cinemas and other areas of public gathering after registering a record-high number of COVID-19 cases.
Denmark announced on Friday that it would close cinemas, theatres, museums and other public venues in an attempt to curb record-high COVID-19 cases driven by the highly transmissible new Omicron variant.
The Scandinavian country has recorded an all-time high of more than 11,000 cases in the past 24 hours, including a new high of more than 2,500 Omicron cases, the government said at a press conference.
“Theatres, cinemas, (and) concert halls are going to have to close,” Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen told a press conference. “We need to limit our activity. We all need to limit our social contact,” she said.
