Coronavirus has been found in 12 out of 24 cats at a mink farm in Holstebro Municipality, the local reports said.

The infection has also been detected in three dogs from covid-19 infected mink farms.

In early November, a mutated strain of COVID-19 known as “cluster 5” was detected among minks, leading the Danish Government to order the culling of 17 million minks in order to prevent a resurgence in COVID-19 cases.
