Re:Denmark to cull millions of minks over mutated coronavirus by vanderZwan on Wednesday November 04, 2020 @03:45PM (#24992877)
I just learned that the Netherlands also was going to prohibit fur framing in 2025 but changed this to 2021 due to multiple cases of covid jumping from minks to humans.

I don't really get why we don't outright ban it immediately and compensate the farmers a bit more for their troubles, since the "return on investment" for not creating another covid strain is a lot higher than that, but ok.

Chances are their days in Denmark were counted as well, making this a much easier choice.
