Denmark has become the first country to suspend its COVID-19 vaccination program, citing a drop in new infections and high immunity among the population.

The country—which in February lifted all pandemic-related restrictions—announced the decision on Tuesday, with officials stating that it was in a “good position” to scrap the program.
