Copenhagen, June 15 Denmark has started to phase out the requirement to wear face masks in all public areas before lifting it entirely by September 1.As of Monday, the wearing of face masks is mandatory on public transport only during rush hours, reports Xinhua news agency.Customers in shops and supermarkets, and those visiting hairdressers or nail salons, are exempt from the face mask rule."The vast majority of people at increased risk have been fully vaccinated, and this also applies to a large part of the rest of the population and employees in the health care system," said Helene Probst, deputy director of the Danish Health Authority, in a statement.The relaxation came after a new agreement was reached by the political parties in the Danish Parliament on June 10.Accompanying the agreement, the Danish Health Authority has published a new set of guidelines that detail where face masks are now required, specifically "where there exists a perceived increased risk of infection".Therefore, face masks will remain mandatory in hospitals, doctors' waiting rooms, coronavirus test sites, vaccination centres and on flights in and out of Denmark.The Statens Serum Institut (SSI), the country's infectious diseases agency, registered 237 new Covid-19 infections in the past 24 hours, the lowest number since last September, bringing the overall caseload to 290,111.The death toll stands at 2,526.To date, 2,725,559 people, or 46.6 per cent of the population, have received at least a first shot of a coronavirus vaccine, and 1,501,788 of them, or 25.7 per cent of the population, are fully vaccinated, the SSI reported on Monday.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
