COVID-19 pandemic in Denmark
The COVID-19 pandemic in Denmark is part of the ongoing worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 () caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (). The virus was first confirmed to have spread to Denmark on 27 February 2020.

Denmark was among the first European countries to introduce lockdown measures, starting on 13 March. Following a period of consistent increase in hospitalisations, the number of people in hospital with COVID-19 has been falling since late March, with the number of cases in need of intensive care and ventilator units (also at the peak in late March) being well below available resources. Starting on 15 April, a very slow and gradual reopening has been initiated, but if there are indications that the number of infections increases too fast, it will be reversed.

In an attempt to reduce the economic impact of the pandemic, the government has introduced large economic packages with the support of all parties in Parliament. Nevertheless, it has been estimated that there will be a decrease in Gross Domestic Product of 3–10% in 2020.
