The schools could close again
Only 1.3 percent of the elderly group have been fully vaccinated.
The Statens Serum Institut (SSI) warned that the low frequency of vaccinations among children could lead to schools being closed again in the coming weeks.
“We definitely want more school children vaccinated, because that’s what it takes to keep the schools open over the next month, as we will see Omikron spread at a much higher rate,” said Tyra Grove Krause, SSI’s Head of Department Infection preparedness.
