Better watch out. Mink gonna get you.

Minks, weasels, ferrets all have an immune system really similar to humans and they are used alot to study human disease. I guess it isn’t surprising that a mink could get covid, but they probably should have euthanized the infected farm. Weasels are sneaky, they escape, and then you have a nasty virus killing off native mink and weasel populations and maybe jumping species to racoons or skunks or some shit.

I suppose this “farm” could have been a lab if you are very conspiratorially minded.

Luckily, in this case they just have a mostly entirely harmless virus most likely killing no mink and weasel populations whatsoever. Except for perhaps the very oldest and fattest and stupidest of the weasels.

You have no way of knowing that. Some study found that danish mink got sicker than people. They killed all the mink in denmark btw. Which was the largest producer of mink in the world. They developed a variant strain. Sale on coats.

They did that just to make the existing fur sell for way more, kind of like the way DeBeers controls the price of diamonds by making them seem scarce.

People of Oregon run, hide, lock your doors and don't come out. And everyone else, pray for the poor, besieged people there. Oh God help us all.
