I find it odd too, in denmark we have so much spread of omikron right now (upto 50,000 daily cases).
However our PM is basically dropping nearly all restrictions, starting monday.
I think we're one of the countries in the world, that does most testing relative to our population.
So it looks bad.... we find plenty of daily infections.
(part of that is we are good at going to be tested, most people have it as a rutine, and get tested atleast twice a week (not just when you have symptoms)).
The point however is, its not stressing our hospitals.
People apparently dont get that sick with it anymore.
(I've heard from people that had it, its like a soar throat for a day or two, and a day with a mild headache, and gone next day type of deal... Some people dont even realise it was Covid, they had, they just like "yeah I had abit of a headache, yesterday" type of thing).
That said, its gonna be weird, not haveing to wear a mask again.
You got used to it, whenever you went out and about.
I used to be very much on the "lets all be really carefull" side of things.
But at this point, maybe our PM is right, time to open everything up again.
With the first corona wave, and delta, things were differnt than now, with Omikron.
Also we bought time to get our vaccinations (~83% vaccinated, 61% have gotten 3rd jab).
Theres a cost to haveing restrictions, and I guess, at this point our PM thinks its not worth it anymore.
Theres a balance to all things, which is why we handled the pandemic so well (economically).
We were quick to lockdown hard, when needed.
Now when its not, we're amoung the first to open everything back up again.
