Mike Ryan, the head of the emergency program for the World Health Organization, called for scientific investigations calling it a "complex issue". According to him, the virus was transmitted to minks by humans, then it underwent a mutation and now the reverse path is taking place.

Already detected at the beginning of October in dozens of farms, the coronavirus mutation in mink is now being transmitted back to humans

Kare Molbak, director of the research center Statens Serum Institut, said the worst case scenario would be "a new pandemic, starting over from Denmark".

“That's why we have to take this extremely seriouslyMolbak said.

Is a mink slaughter looming?

There are between 15 and 17 million mink in Denmark, one of the world's leading exporters of mink fur.

According to government estimates, culling the country's mink population due to the coronavirus mutation could cost up to $ 785 million.

The head of the national police Thorkild Fogde he urged to proceed "as soon as possible".
