Sweden declare pandemic over, despite warnings from scientists STOCKHOLM, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Sweden scrapped almost all of its few pandemic restrictions on Wednesday and stopped most testing for COVID-19, even as the pressure on the healthcare systems remained high and some scientists begged for more patience in fighting the disease. Sweden's government, which throughout the pandemic has opted against lockdowns in favour of a voluntary approach, announced last week it would scrap the remaining restrictions - effectively declaring the pandemic over - as vaccines and the less severe Omicron variant have cushioned severe cases and deaths. "As we know this pandemic, I would say it's over," Minister of Health Lena Hallengren told Dagens Nyheter. "It's not over, but as we know it in terms of quick changes and restrictions it is," she said, adding that COVID would no longer be classified as a danger to society. As of Wednesday, bars and restaurants will be allowed to stay open after 11 p.m. again, and with no limits on the number of guests. Attendance limits for larger indoor venues were also lifted, as was the use of vaccine passes. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/sweden-declare-pandemic-over-despite-warnings-scientists-2022-02-09/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Buffalo Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I am thankful I live in Florida, the only limitation imposed by government is masks in government buildings. There have been other imposed by private companies but they have always had that right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
