The test sites are run by Copenhagen Medical, and to get your test result, you must download their app Kviktest.

As a result of an adjustment of the National Board of Health guidelines regarding management of infection in higher education, AU’s corona site on infection management among students and staff has been updated.

The adjusted guidelines state that one should not detect infection on the basis of one positive antigen test, but wait for the result of a follow-up PCR test, which must de- / confirm the result from the antigen test.
However, if there are two or more students in one class with positive antigen tests, infection must be detected immediately.

The authorities have announced that from Wednesday 21/4, residence permits will again be issued for e.g. PhD students and their accompanying family members.
On the other hand, persons who travel to Denmark after having had permanent residence in so-called “red” countries or regions cannot enter Denmark as long as the country / region has a red mark with the authorities. It is a tightening of to the previous restrictions, as researchers so far (South Africa excepted) have been able to enter against taking various measures regarding isolation and tests.
The Corona site targeting international employees will be updated with this information.
