12 Countries End COVID Restrictions

As efforts to prevent the transmission of the virus have faltered and nations lower the threat presented by SARS-CoV-2, Europe is speeding plans to end the COVID regulations. Sweden and Switzerland have announced that they will lift COVID limitations and eventually open their nations, joining Denmark, Norway, Finland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Italy, Lithuania, France, and the United Kingdom.

12 Countries End COVID Restrictions

Leading Israeli officials also stated this week that the country’s COVID vaccine passport, known as the “Green Pass,” will be phased out of restaurants, hotels, gyms, and cinemas.

Prime Minister Naftali Bennet’s cabinet said that the policy amendment will enter into force on February 6, awaiting approval by a legislative panel. For occasions including parties or weddings, Israel’s proof-of-vaccination regulation will stay in force.

“To continue the green pass in the same way can create false assurances,” said Nadav Davidovitch, an epidemiologist and public health physician advising Prime Minister Naftali Bennet’s government. “It’s not reducing infections in closed spaces like theatres. It needs to be used mainly for high-risk places like hospitals, elderly care homes, or events when you are eating and singing and dancing.”

Sweden’s government announced on Thursday that all COVID restrictions will be lifted by February 9th.

As per Politico, due to a greater awareness of the Omicron variant, which in itself is weaker and linked with fewer hospitalizations, the Swedish Public Health Agency reviewed COVID as “not being socially critical.”

“It’s time to open up Sweden,” said Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson. “The pandemic isn’t over, but it is moving into a new phase.”

Sweden’s resolution comes a day after Switzerland declared that, from today, compulsory work-from-home and isolation requirements will be abolished, citing excellent immunity rates and the milder Omicron variant.

The administration would also relax border health regulations, removing the requirement for tourists to get Swiss COVID certificates.

After speaking with 26 cantons, employers, trade unions, and parliamentary committees, the Swiss government said it intended to start taking down further limitations.

By an official statement, the government will decide the subsequent measures to ease pandemic precautions in two weeks, based on the health status.

A gradual departure strategy or a swift stop to all COVID restrictions on Feb. 17 are two options.

Denmark to classify COVID as endemic disease

Denmark has since become the first nation in the European Union to abolish all COVID regulations, relabeling COVID as an endemic disease, just days prior to Sweden and Switzerland made their statements.

COVID was no longer a “socially critical disease,” according to Danish Health Minister Magnus Heunicke, who submitted a statement to the parliament’s epidemiology committee on Feb. 1.

The government chose to remove COVID regulations relying on the committee’s suggestions.

The “rules will lapse when the illness will no longer be categorized as ‘socially critical’ on 1 February 2022,” Heunicke wrote.

When an illness is classified as “socially critical,” the government has the right to impose broad restrictions, such as closing companies and mandating mask use.

The spread of an endemic disease is unrestricted, but it is regarded as providing a lower risk to society.

“No one can know what will happen next December,” Heunicke told CNN on Monday. “But we promised the citizens of Denmark that we will only have restrictions if they are truly necessary and we’ll lift them as soon as we can. That’s what’s happening right now.”

In response to a question regarding vaccine requirements, Heunicke stated:

“Luckily we don’t need that in Denmark … I’m really happy that we don’t need it because it’s a very troubling path to move that way.”

Director-General of the Danish Health Authority, Søren Brostrøm, agreed:

“I do not believe in imposed vaccine mandates. It’s a pharmaceutical intervention with possible side effects. You need as an authority, to recognize that. I think if you push too much, you will have a reaction — action generates reaction, especially with vaccines.”

When dealing with big sections of the population, Danish officials will continue to encourage at-home tests and therefore will render PCR tests accessible to the general public. Visitors coming into the country will still be subjected to a medical assessment.

Other European countries drop COVID restrictions 

According to Bloomberg, limitations were also eased in Italy, France, Norway, Lithuania, England, and Finland.

“We should discuss whether it’s time for us to take a different viewpoint and start unwinding restrictions even with a high number of infections,” Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin told reporters. “I hope that we can be rid of restrictions during February.”

The administration resolved to abolish all limitations on meetings and soften limitations on restaurants and bars on February 14 during a meeting in Helsinki to examine the speed of lifting constraints. Until March 1, nightclubs will be closed. There will be no limits on cultural venues, activities, or sports.

The government of Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi convened on Wednesday to consider ways to reduce limitations. The administration will first concentrate on child quarantine restrictions, with intentions to reduce the 10-day isolation mandate to five days.

The Lithuanian authorities will also no longer force unvaccinated employees to undertake weekly screening and will no longer need them to provide an immunization certification in public places such as restaurants and sporting activities.

On Wednesday, France’s new laws took effect, abolishing forced work-from-home guidelines, removing face mask requirements outside, and relaxing capacity limitations in stadiums and theatres.

Norway jumped on board, removing prohibitions on private parties, pubs, and restaurants, as well as eliminating the need for border tests.

Last Thursday, England declared the relaxation of COVID limitations. Face veils were no longer needed by law anyplace in England as of Jan. 27, and COVID permits were no longer necessary to access large gigs and clubs.

In addition, the administration removed guidelines for face-covering in schools, advise for those working from home, and limits on visitors to nursing homes.

As part of a wider relaxation of regulations, the Netherlands reopened restaurants, pubs, museums, and theatres on Jan. 26.

Lockdowns had little-to-no benefit on public health, analysis shows

Little, if any, research have been conducted to see if vaccine passports and COVID limitations reduced COVID incidence, hospitalizations, and deaths.

COVID lockdown procedures imposed in the United States and Europe, on the other hand, had almost little influence on public health, according to a new study released by John Hopkins academics.

“We find little-to-no evidence that mandated lockdowns in Europe and the United States had a noticeable effect on COVID-19 mortality rates,” the researchers wrote.

Shelter-in-place orders lowered COVID fatality by only 2.9 percent, according to the study.

Shelter-in-place orders reduced COVID deaths by 5.1 percent in studies that looked at them alone, but when paired with other lockdown tactics, they ultimately raised COVID mortality by 2.8 percent.

Researchers discovered that limiting gatherings may have elevated COVID mortality. They stated:

“[Shelter-in-place orders] may isolate an infected person at home with his/her family where he/she risks infecting family members with a higher viral load, causing more severe illness. But often, lockdowns have limited people’s access to safe (outdoor) places such as beaches, parks and zoos, or included outdoor mask mandates or strict outdoor gathering restrictions, pushing people to meet at less safe (indoor) places.”

COVID lockdown protocols also played a role in “reducing economic activity, rising unemployment, reducing schooling, causing political unrest, contributing to domestic violence and undermining liberal democracy,” the report said.

  1. “According to Bloomberg, limitations were also eased in Italy, France, Norway, Lithuania, England, and Finland.”
    For FRANCE, this is a lie, this is a lie, this is a lie : various ministers like health, education, economy, make contradictory statements, as usual. And Macron the same !

  2. something smells fishy, they are going one step back to then make two steps forward, these countries have shown themselves to be slaves of the UN-WHO luciferic mandates, and all of the sudden the change their mind…I dont think so, more like a change of strategy.

  3. Covid Crusher: Mix one heaped teaspoon of Iodine table salt in a mug of warm clean water, cup a hand and sniff or snort the entire mugful up your nose, spitting out anything which comes down into your mouth. If sore, then you have a virus, so continue morning noon and night, or more often if you want, until the soreness goes away (2-3 minutes) then blow out your nose and flush away, washing your hands afterwards, until when you do my simple cure, you don’t have any soreness at all, when you flush – job done. Also swallow a couple of mouthfuls of salt water and if you have burning in your lungs, salt killing virus and pneumonia there too.

    My simple salt water cure, kills all Coronaviruses and viruses, as soon as you think you have an infection, or while self isolating, before the viruses mutate into the disease in your head and body, for which there is no cure.

    I have been doing this simple cure for over 27 years and I am and others never sick from viruses and there is no reason why any of you should be either – when your only alternative are those vaccines!!

  4. Sometime soon, your doctor will ask you to complete a Health Check Assessment and during it, you will be expected to give a nasal and throat DNA test samples.

    If you have NOT been vaccinated, you can deny the DNA test and the Health Check Assessment, because, firstly, it will be added to the DNA Criminal Database and if you have committed any crime in the past, where you left your DNA, you will be targeted for punishment AND if you have ever had any charges laid against you that evolved into a conviction, you are required by Law to admit them and it is an offense, not to do so.

    Mandatory vaccination is illegal under the Australian Law and would be subject to Legal Proceedings under Common Law against Section 51 of the Legal Code.

    The Constitution prohibits any form of compulsion, which would subject citizens to medical or pharmaceutical services, including mandatory vaccination. They should remain free to decide whether they wish to receive certain medical treatments, including vaccination and they should not be disadvantaged by any government on the ground of their own voluntary decisions.

    I notice the Constitution refers to its “citizens” wihout determining if they are Human or Non Human and that might count in your favour, if you are vaccinated.

    In America: EUA products are experimental under U.S. law. Under the Nuremberg Code and federal regulations, no one can force a human being to participate in this experiment.
    Specifically, under 21 U.S. Code Sec.360bbb-3(e)(1)(A)(ii)(III), “authorization for medical products for use in emergencies,” it is unlawful to deny someone a job or an education because they refuse to be an experimental subject. Instead, potential recipients have an absolute right to refuse EUA vaccines.

    The purpose of the second DNA sample remains unclear, but if you have been vaccinated, then I would imagine that your DNA is being sorted for further experimentation, on your body, by your body’s owners, the vaccine maker of your choice as you are regarded as no longer human and you don’t have any rights, over what you own or your body – as I understand the legislation which I provide below.

    My suggestion to each of you who reads this, is to agree to an appointment for the Health Check Assessment with your doctor and then a couple of days later, ring in and cancel it and refuse to have it at any time henceforth, by the same means – which is what I am doing – I remain unvaccinated and thus Human.

    Your doctor is obliged to treat you and issue pills as part and parcel of his care of you and he cannot refuse you, under the Medical Laws and the Hippocratic Oath, if you refuse to compy with any Health Check Assessment – how far the government will push you, to force you to take the Health Check Assessment, remains to be seen – given the pressures at the moment to conform and be vaccinated.

    Vaccination, in Australia, is currently a State run procedure and does not necessarily come under Commonwealth Government, so if you receive a pension or other payment from the Commonwealth, they cannot be stopped, from before whenever this legislation comes into force, only from that day forwards, can the people receiving Commonwealth payments, be affected, as I understand the Law.

    Covid-19 Patent Horrors
    By Dr. Ariyana Love
    In my latest interview with Stew Peter’s, we discussed how the “Covid-19 vaccine” ingredients listed in the patents, reveal that all these poisonous death shots are deleting genes and genetically modifying Humans for patentability.
    GRAPHENE
    The Hydrogel patent US8415325B2 is listed in the Moderna patent, here. Hydrogels are also mentioned in a second Moderna patent, here. Hydrogel is listed in the Johnson & Johnson patent, here. Hydrogels are made from Graphene Oxide. Nobody can deny the evidence that Graphene Oxide is in the shots.
    GMO HUMANS
    All the Covid-19 “vaccine” patents mention gene deletion. All the patents except one, mention “complimentary DNA” (cDNA). cDNA is a chimeric mRNA cocktail that’s being coded into Human cells using artificial genetic sequences in cross-species genomics.
    According to the US Supreme Court ruling in 2013, altering Humans with cDNA makes them patent eligible. The court documents show that cDNA is made using modified bacterium and Supreme Court judges ruled it patent eligible. This means that a plant, animal or Human, could be patented and owned if first genetically modified with cDNA.
    Mark Steele summarized it perfectly by stating:
    In the US, the Supreme Court has ruled that vaccinated people worldwide are products, patented goods, according to US law, no longer human. Through a modified DNA or RNA vaccination, the mRNA vaccination, the person ceases to be human and becomes the OWNER of the holder of the modified GEN vaccination patent, because they have their own genome and are no longer “human” (without natural people), but “trans-human”, so a category that does not exist in Human Rights. The quality of a natural person and all related rights are lost. This applies worldwide and patents are subject to US law.
    Since 2013, all people vaccinated with GM-modified mRNAs are legally trans-human and legally identified as trans-human and do not enjoy any human or other rights of a state, and this applies worldwide, because GEN-POINT technology patents are under US jurisdiction and law, where they were registered.”

    “If” the vaccinated are taken away, randomly, at least you won’t need to pack a bag and don’t expect to return – think of the rights of an aborted fetus.

  5. SCREW the patents : remembering that ‘they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights’… so , EVEN tinkering w one’s DNA alters not the ‘original’ item’s owner ie, (God , Almighty) . Let’s just screw the Patent Pimps with their feeble attempts to own us – – it’s all just another silly ‘mandate’ of the Hellish Lefties attempting to ‘blow smoke’ up our ass. it’s Soooooo simple even Canadian Truckers get it ! … …. shalom, al jenkins

  6. Hello Richard

    Thanks for your valuable information. How do your comments apply to non-mRNA therapeutics like Sputnik V and the Sinovac & Sinopharm among other vaccines? Thank you for any clarification you are able to provide!
