It has been found that in some regions of Germany, the number of infected UK mutant viruses is spreading rapidly, reaching half of new coronavirus infections (Corona 19).
In these regions, it has been confirmed that the number of young people among seriously ill patients is increasing markedly.
Denmark closed some borders with Germany after the virus quickly spread across the German border.
According to Tagespiegel, Germany, on the 20th (local time), in Flensburg, where the British mutant virus B117 is spreading the fastest, the proportion of mutant virus infections among the confirmed cases of the new corona 19 reaches 50%.
From this day on, Flensburg tightened the blockade in an extreme way.
Nightlife was prohibited from 9:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. the following day, and a strict contact ban was issued except for the same household.
They also decided to keep the school door closed.
Flensburg authorities predicted strong crackdowns on whether the lockdown would be continued and warned they would face huge fines for violations.
Denmark, where the proportion of mutant viruses among new corona19 cases has soared to 47%, has blocked 13 routes that can cross the border into Flensburg, Germany.
The mutant virus spread rapidly to Hannover and Dusseldorf in northern Germany, and the proportion of mutant virus infections among new confirmed corona19 cases reached 40%.
This is almost double the 22% of all new confirmed corona19 cases in Germany.
According to a tally by the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the German Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the proportion of B117-infected patients among new confirmed corona19 cases in Germany exceeded 22% as of 17.
Compared to the 5.8% ratio on day 5, just two weeks ago, it is spreading rapidly.
The proportion of young people among seriously ill patients is increasing in hospitals due to the rapid spread of the mutant virus in Germany.
“The age range of patients treated for COVID-19 has become significantly younger,” said a spokesman for St. Francis Hospital in Flensburg. “There are more patients who get worse more often and more severely without a chronic disease.”
Hannover Regional President Hauke Yagau also said: “The age range of Corona 19 patients treated in hospitals has significantly decreased compared to recent months.”
