Sharjah24 - Reuters: Denmark will offer a fourth coronavirus vaccination to the most vulnerable citizens as it faces record infections from the Omicron variant, the country's health minister said on Wednesday.
The move comes as lawmakers agreed to ease restrictions at the end of the week, including reopening cinemas and music venues, as hospitalisation rates and deaths have stabilised despite the surge in cases.

"The more widespread the infection is in society, the greater the risk that the infection will reach our most vulnerable," Health Minister Magnus Heunicke said.

"We are now embarking on a new chapter, namely a decision to offer the fourth jab to the most vulnerable citizens," he told reporters.
