It could be argued that, although they occupy/occupied very different political spheres, Nicola Sturgeon is a Scottish equal and opposite reaction to Thatcher. In other words Sturgeon elicits the same revulsion in parts of England that Thatcher did in parts of Scotland for broadly similar reasons.

Danish government has taken dramatic steps regarding this mutation

Quote:
The country’s health authorities fear the new strain could prove to be more resistant against a vaccine. Kåre Mølbak, head of the State Serum Institute, the national authority for the control of infectious diseases, said the strain had mutations on its spike protein, the part of the virus that infects healthy cells.

Denmark is the world's biggest producer of mink fur and its main export markets are China and Hong Kong.

No prob for the inventive Chinaman: Take advantage of the local infectious fauna. Replace mink fur with bat flaps and avoid the furocious crisis:

Everyone living or working in Liverpool will be offered repeat tests, whether or not they have symptoms of coronavirus.

Mayor Joe Anderson said the two-week testing pilot could save lives and stop hospitals being overwhelmed.

About 2,000 military personnel are helping deliver the tests in the city.

Denmark has been taken off the UK's travel corridor list, with those arriving from the country now having to self-isolate for 14 days.

It comes as Danish authorities say a lockdown will be introduced in some areas over a coronavirus mutation found in mink that can spread to humans.

Students at the University of Manchester have torn down "prison-like" fencing erected around their campus.

A further 378 deaths were reported in the UK on Thursday and 24,141 more have tested positive for coronavirus.

The UK has imposed a ban on non-UK citizens coming from Denmark amid concerns over a new coronavirus strain that has spread from mink to humans.

UK citizens will be able to return to Britain from Denmark - but will have to isolate along with all members of their household for 14 days.
