The positive development is stabile and the numbers are going in the right way: 503 are hospitalized, 139 in intensive care and unfortunately 187 deaths. 

The Prime Minister points out that the virus has a three-four weeks delay from infection until it shows, and that it is concerning how some people are starting to become too easy-going by for example planning Easter Holiday lunches. 

On this background, the Prime Minister presents the plan for the 1st phase of reopening Denmark. All points of the plan are preconditioned by everyone taking responsibility and continues to comply to the government’s recommendations by: washing hands, keeping distance and not meeting up with too many people. 

1st phase of the reopening contains the following: 

  • The Health Services will open for other activities than corona. 
  • Nurseries, daycare, care facilities and 0-5th grade classes reopen. 
  • In these institutions, additional new precautions will be implemented. A reopening will happen only when these are established.
  • Private employees should start working again provided that it is responsible in regards to the overall health. 

The Prime Minister underscores that these points are clearly conditioned by a continuous stabile development – and that we all have a responsibility for this by complying to the guidelines. 

Furthermore, other initiatives will be extended by four weeks until May 10t:

  • The closing of the borders  
  • Ban against gatherings of more than 10 people. 
  • The tightened guidelines 
  • The closing of higher educations, libraries, cinemas, malls and cafés.
  • Small liberal occupations such as hairdressers, tattoo artists and others are extended. 

The Prime Minister encourages everyone to show patience and understanding. Nothing is as before – and the everyday life will not return to our society for many months to come. 

Additionally, she informs of further circumstances: 

  • 6-10th class students must continues to attend school from home, however all exams will be cancelled and replaced by the yearly grades. 
  • Students who finalize a youth education (upper secondary), will attend a different and limited exam.
  • Festivals, markets, and other big events over the course of the summer, cannot take place: the ban against larger gatherings is retained up to and including August. 
  • The government and the parties of the Parliament will examine the possibility of improving the aid packages. 

Moreover, the Prime Minister repeats her appeal of showing citizenship, more specifically directed to the banks and larger rental companies, who should show solidarity – but also to the citizens, who are encouraged to support their local businesses and small companies. 

In regards to the actual Health Services, the Prime Minister announces that more tests will be undertaken in order to clarify how many  people has had corona, just as everything is being done to make sure the health care workers have the equipment they need. 

Finally, the Prime Minister states that the most important thing is that we all contribute: it is up to every single one of us to do one’s duty. And this is the precondition for our society to slowly reopen.
