New UK SARS-CoV-2 B117 variant is now 7% of all cases in North Jutland and 2.3% of all cases in Denmark
At Aalborg University, Professor Mads Albertsen heads a research group that has followed the British mutation since it was discovered in December.
“If it is 74 percent more contagious , then we get an infection curve that rises very sharply again, and therefore we get many more dead. It is the horror scenario that it is so much more contagious , because then we get a pandemic, which is very difficult to control”
