Super Covid Started Here.

From what I’ve learnt our scientists are leading edge with the genetic code sequencing of the virus and tracking and auditing its various mutations. So yes although we are the first to identify, or at least publically announce it as such it is likely that it is indeed widespread in Europe as well.
In the end ignorance will be no excuse but let’s face it many of worlds governments have little or no accurate idea of what’s going on.
To use the football analogy again the opposition have scored another goal just when we were getting back into the game.

Heard this yesterday. The UK is home to 45% of the world's capacity of Genome Sequencing. Not bad for a country some consider can't survive and thrive on its own.

Not bad at all, but how are all these research facilities within universities financed and funded? It’s not directly funded by government. They could be privately funded. I’m aware some of my friends here in Cardiff (known from the uni days) work in these departments at Cardiff University. Let’s hope this financing continues. But in the meantime let hope our gov are making pandemic contingency plans from now on.. but only once we get Trident/HS2 funding out the way first, because those are more critical to our survival.
