Minks pass on their ‘own’ coronavirus to humans: “Also risk in Flemish nurseries” | Coronavirus is spreading

All 17 million minks in Danish farms must be killed, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen communicated. A variant of the SARS-Cov-2 virus has been found among the fur animals and at least twelve people have been infected with it. The protective antibodies of patients who were already infected with the coronavirus would also react weakly to the mutated virus. “There is a risk that the effect of a future vaccine will be weakened, or in the worst case undermined,” said Frederiksen.
