#The Beginning
The date is November 4th, 2020. The Prime Minister turns on her shitty zoom connection to address the nation for the 269th time. What was supposed to be a easy year for the PM, full of popular reforms and the biggest distributive changes to the Danish welfare system in 20 years has so far been marred by the global health crisis and today is no different. Not that the PM minds too much, her handling of the crisis had been widely supported in the Danish populace and her government has as a result enjoyed an almost unprecedented amount of support from both the populace and the rest of Parliament. No one in Parliament, not even her most staunch opponents on the far right, had been willing to oppose the emergency measures passed in April that granted the government the most direct power since the war and has allowed the PM to take decisive action against the virus, reaping the benefits of a successful containment policy. While there has certainly started to be some grumbling about how the government was not consulting enough with parliament, it can largely be dismissed as parliamentary bickering. They can scream and shout all they want, Mette Frederiksen is the most powerful and popular Prime Minster in 70 years and today she will cement her position with another resolute action against the virus to the praise of not just Denmark, but the entire world.

But we have called this Press conference because of a more serious issue. The States Serum institute has delivered a very serious report on the continued spread of coronavirus among Mink. **There is today 207 Mink farms with identified Coronavirus and this has happened despite a concentrated effort to limit the spread. At the same time we are seeing infections with new mutated types of the Corona virus, both among the mink populations and among the local populations. We have thus also not succeeded in stopping the spread from reaching humans. In other words, the virus has mutated in Mink and the mutated virus has spread to humans. And worse still, The State’s Serum Institute has in their labotories identified 5 examples of virus from mink and 12 examples of virus from humans being resistant to antibodies. In other words, the mutated virus from mink can potentially put the coming vaccine to Coronavirus at risk

After a dispute between the danish government and the danish mink breeder organisation that has delayed the containment efforts, sars-cov-2 has mutated in infected mink. Clinical tests show that antibodies has less effect against the mutated virus. The government is calling in the army & home guard in emergency response to destroy all mink within Denmark.
Maybe McDonald's announcement that they are launching a new meat free menu is just the beginning?
