For this newscast, we visited Þingvellir to talk about the decreasing COVID numbers. Also on the roster? Icelandic names were found on the Barrington Declaration, including our top epidemiologist, Þórólfur Guðnason. We also checked out the lake trout in Öxará that have become a sensation in Icelandic media.

Note: Due to the effect the Coronavirus is having on tourism in Iceland, it’s become increasingly difficult for the Grapevine to survive. If you enjoy our content and want to help the Grapevine’s journalists do things like eat and pay rent, please consider joining our High Five Club.
