Looks like the Dutch have thrown in the towel ie..travel restrictions from the UK.

Not just them .. BoJo has used the "new" strain ( something they have been aware of since September) to justify stricter restrictions over Christmas ( something he was mocking last week ) and Europe has taken notice ...

Of course Bojo shouting from the roof, and ragpapers titles like that are not gonna help the situation nor the perception by other countries ....

I think most will see the click bait. But unfortunately sells newspapers. All of Europe will have this new strain as will Asia eventually.  Isolation measures wont make the virus go away.

So the mutant covid strain has been traced back to Brazil. It was picked up in the UK because we are one of the only countries with the capability to track the virus genome, as soon as UK authorities got wind they informed the WHO. That's how its supposed to be down, if only the chinky fucks had down that last November.

Why do you post such erroneous information.

Any one with about $US1000 can buy an Oxford Nanopore device and sequence genomes.

With Patent Suit, Illumina Looks to Tame Emerging British Rival Oxford  Nanopore | MIT Technology Review

Once sequenced you can submit your genome to GISAID, a global collaboration based in Germany who maintain a database of viral genomes.

Alternatively there is GENBANK, part of the NIH in the US. They maintain a huge database of genomes, not just viruses.

Either of these repositories contains tens of thousands of SARS-CoV-2 genomes submitted from all over the world.

The VUI-202012/01 variant is unusual in that it contains a larger than normal number of mutations all combined. Some of the mutations have been seen as individual variants in other parts of the world. e.g. the N501Y substitution was identified in Brazil in April. The 69-70 deletion has been circulating in Thailand and Germany for most of the year.

PS. The NIH in the US received the first SARS-CoV-2 genome in January, about 2 weeks after the chinky fucks first sequenced it.

Yesterday's headline from another quality Rupert Murdoch media outlet.

Coronavirus UK: Terrifying new mutant virus strain found in London

A terrifying new strain of COVID-19 is ravaging London and southeast England, thwarting the UK’s chances of returning to normal by Christmas.

 

Anyone here feel ravaged?

Before you panic, watch the video

 

Now run in circles, scream and shout 'cause The End is Nigh...

There we go again, more fear mongering and panic .....

FFS will they ever learn ? Or is it the core of their business to take control.

Remember the 150,000 deaths ?

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/dec/21/calls-for-national-lockdown-in-england-to-curb-spread-of-new-covid-strain

"Government scientific advisers warned that inaction could cost tens of thousands of lives and risk an “economic, human and social disaster”, with the new strain spreading across the UK and overseas."

God alone knows what Roger Daltry and Pete Townsend are going to do about it?

With the UK's numbers and this new strain nobody in Europe or elsewhere will want anyone from the UK travelling.

I imagine after Christmas and new year the numbers will sky rocket here. 

No they are waiting for right after the inauguration of the new USA president on Wednesday January 20th before they will be cranking up the fear machine and put it in high gear.....Until then they will just be slowly ratcheting things up.....
