NEW mutant Covid variant reaches Germany from the UK

German authorities reported on Christmas Eve that the new mutant Covid strain had reached Germany through a traveller arriving from the UK. Officials reported that the woman tested positive after landing in Frankfort airport on a flight from London Heathrow, and is currently isolating in her family’s home in Baden-Wuerttemberg.

“It is the first known case in Germany,” authorities in the German state of Baden-Württenberg said in a statement. Three family members who have been in close contact with the woman have also quarantined, the statement added.

Germany placed a temporary ban on all flights arriving from the UK on Sunday, December 20 and later announced the restrictions would remain in place until January 6.
