Almost 10,000 new CoV cases were registered in Denmark yesterday – more than ever before in a single day. About 3,000 of the cases are omicron variants of the virus, according to the National Serum Institute.

In total, about 9,000 Omicron infections have been detected in the country of nearly six million people since the end of November. Superspreader events in nightlife in particular have led to the virus spreading rapidly, the institute said.

Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced via Facebook new measures to slow the spread of the virus. “I have no doubt that new measures will be needed to break the chains of infection,” she wrote on Facebook. Frederiksen did not provide details.
