One morning, Kåre Mølbak, the director of the Danish Serum Institute, says that we must keep a social distance for at least another year. In the evening on Deadline (DR2), the chair of the Danish Psychologist Association, Eva Secher Mathiasen, criticizes the term for our all-new rule of ‘social distance’. So- cial we must be. It is a basic human need that will lead to a col- lective depression if we do not have social contact over time, and this is understood by the chairman on the television.
