Corona rebellion: – Ugly

Coronapass

In Denmark, the Corona passport, which will, among other things, guarantee safe travel for Europeans this summer, has already been used for a few weeks, while Norway will release its first version of the Corona passport on Friday.

How to use the passport locally in Norway, will be presented in Step 3 of the reopening plan, next week, NTB writes.

Change the rules of isolation

In Denmark, there is extensive use of the passport, which is obtained after vaccination, coronary heart disease or a negative test that does not exceed 72 hours. Among other things, it must be presented to visit restaurants, bars and amusement parks.

Even if the requirement to provide a Corona passport is removed for some places where the risk of infection is low, there will still be heavy use of it, says Justice Minister Hækkerup according to the NTB.

In Denmark, it has also been opened for travel without quarantine for a few weeks, to the country designated as Yellow Country. There you only need to pay attention to your personal safety, and Ten-day quarantine is released after return.

Norway can unlock more this week

Unlike Denmark, Norway has chosen to stay away from the dates set in its reopening plan. In this country, the main rule is that there should be at least three weeks between each move, with room for adjustments.

Next week, the government will assess whether it is justified for Norway to move to step 3 of National reopening plan. Among other things, it is open for normal service times and is considered to increase the maximum number of people who can gather in both private and public spaces. It may also be appropriate for more people to gather at the events.
