Sweden’s government is planning to ease restrictions for restaurant goers, despite an uptick in the number of Covid-19 cases in recent weeks.
Starting Oct. 15, restaurants and cafés will be allowed to host events with a seated audience of up to 500 people compared to the current limit of 50, according to the Minister of Home Affairs, Mikael Damberg.
