The Danish government announced Wednesday it will make available a fourth COVID-19 dose to its citizens later this week, making Denmark the first country in Europe to introduce a second COVID-19 vaccine booster.

“The more widespread the infection is in society, the greater the risk that the infection will reach our most vulnerable,” Health Minister Magnus Heunicke told a news conference.
