In Denmark there is an outbreak of a mutated coronavirus, which they have linked back to bred minks. This had led them to kill up to 17 million minks, because there have also been 200 coronavirus cases that have linked back to the mink exposure. Much of Denmark and effected areas have shut back down and limited outings due to this issue. Denmark leads in the supplier of mink fur, which makes sense to why this outbreak is occurring. Their greatest fear is that this could become a new pandemic, so they are taking all precautions possible as soon as possible.
