Re: Covid new strain.

One has to know them, to confirm them at this age of cognetivity.

Yes. But there should be other ones along the routes. Other countries would have been able to identify them through unusual growth patterns as part of their track and trace procedures (after all, that's how each region in the Uk has been allocated its tier, and how this new strain drew attention to itself) . It's the curious apparent lack of them that I'm questioning.

Just give up, wait for the next press release, ad infinitum.

There have been hotspots /waypoints based especially in Paris. There have long been slime trails from there to Germany and to Calais.

Kent is where most slime trails head to before splitting to towns and cities in the UK, especially Leeds where (coincidentally?) so very many illegal entrants to our country are regularly picked up because there are so many.

Leeds was one of the places put on tier three before this disaster when once again it became a place where covid was such a problem and now is where this imported supervirus is spreading from.

But Leeds is just one of many of our cities polluted by the supervirus that is so very closely linked with illegals and the trails they leave in their wake.

Thanks for the added detail. Would it be reasonable to conclude that this new variant strain has been floating around the continent for longer than the Uk and that it follows that their infection rate must be higher? If so, isn't it a bit disingenuous for other affected (ie infected) counties to be closing their borders against us now?

From what I've gleaned this supervaccine has been observed in Europe before being picked up here presumably because our more diligent testing protocol. There's a hell of a lot of detail across the MSM but the story is emerging as we go.

Right now there's more maps, graphs, automatic writing and goodness knows what, this particular map if legit tells a story in its self showing Paris as being both the way points of the "snail trails" for illegals and emergence of the supervirus.

It appears there's another serious mutation emerging in ZA possibly even more virrulant than what we've got already.

Re: Covid new strain.

I see Boris is now planning to test all lorry drivers coming in and out of the UK. Perhaps he read my earlier comment....
