New Virus Sparks Fear – But Did We Learn From the Corona Era?

A new virus outbreak has raised concerns in Denmark, prompting questions about the country’s preparedness for future crises, state broadcaster DR reports.

The discussion comes as Denmark marks its first annual National Preparedness Week, held each year in the first week of May. The initiative aims to assess the nation’s ability to respond to emergencies, including health threats.

In a podcast interview with Udsyn, Kristian Lauta, professor of legal science and pro-rector for education at the University of Copenhagen, examines whether lessons from the coronavirus pandemic have improved Denmark’s resilience against future disasters.
