    Mink

    Well, frick!



    Seems to be a nastier strain too.

    Cases of a mutated strain of Covid-19 have been detected that may undermine future vaccines.

      I've read that it isn't more deadly or more infectious, but the issue is its the first leap away from the dominate strains in terms of antibodies.

      So if this strain escapes grows to be say 30% of global cases, you have just reduced current vaccine effectiveness by 1/3.
      Everyone on Calguns keeps talking about TDS. I never knew we had so many fish keepers!

      The TDS on my 10gallon tanks 110ppm
      The TDS on my 29 gallon tank is 150ppm (due to substrate)

                    I think the whole COVID mutation thing was covered a couple of months ago prior to this article. The mutation referenced in the Denmark article was something that was mentioned in those articles.

                    After reading through a couple of news articles about Denmark's decision I think the group of people who agreed to this plan are jumping the gun before other scientists can critique or even sequence this supposed mutated virus.

                      You don't cull 17,000,000 mink over nothing.

                        I agree. Having resistance to the first gen vaccines is a big deal.

                            "It" is not here - the mutated strain Cluster 5, hopefully it is extinct.
