It seems mink are very susceptible to Covid 19 as they have structures similar to humans in their breathing tract.
Denmark har the world's largest production of mink furs. ... That is, till now.
A mutation, called "cluster 5" has shown up in Covid 19 among mink, and it has been transferred to humans in, currently known, 12 cases. This mutation has reduced reaction the the vaccines and other treatments currently under development (it is not otherwise more virulent or contagious than other versions).
To counter this, the Danish government has resolved to have the entire population if mink in the country put down, essentially obliterating a whole business for an unknown time (perhaps forever).
