How the new pandemic has spread to cats

 It would seem we are on the brink of a new pandemic as a new mutation of Covid 19 affects 17 million mink in farms in Denmark. However this is only the latest and largest outbreak. In In June 24 mink farms were infected in the Netherlands and in Teruel Spain almost 100,000 were culled after the outbreak. Cats at one mink farm in the Netherlands had also been infected. The fear is that infection cam spread from the mink to humans. Even more dangerous is the way the virus mutates and changes. Such possibilities are explored in The Tenth Life examining how viral mutations may change animal behaviour. To find out how this might happen and how it could end check out The Tenth Life on Amazon Kindle and in paperback.
