More good news! Not that rate of infection going up is a bad thing, quite the opposite, it's excellent news. Now herd immunity will be reached more quickly. Just keep VOLUNTARY measures in place for the vulnerable and it's all good.
Open up! Sack that panic merchant.
The rate at which the coronavirus infection is spreading in Denmark has increased since the country opened schools and kindergartens, but not enough to stop the decline in the number of people infected.
According to a new analysis from Denmark's infectious diseases agency SSI, the so-called reproduction rate has increased from 0.6 to 0.9, still below the crucial figure of 1, which means that each infected person on average infects on average one other over the course of their illness.
"There is no indication that there is an actual acceleration of the epidemic," the agency wrote in a status report.
