Covid Woes This Morning

 First, it is true that some alert went out between 7 PM and 10 PM, to halt all incoming flights from the UK into Germany.  Several didn't get the word.  At least one flight landed in Hannover with passengers forced into a hall with cots and to wait till this morning when testing teams could test all of them for the virus.

Via Focus reporting....Denmark, Italy and the Netherlands are now reporting the Covid variant....so it's already arrived in Europe.  Germany?  So far, the authorities say it's not active.  One might suspect it's a bit too late to stop the UK spread, and it'll be in Germany within the next couple of days.

Some discussions going on in the state of NRW over whether Christmas masses will be held in churches.  The authorities are leaning toward a shutdown of the churches on this occasion.  Some churches (limited number) are already doing a cancellation announcement.
