Contrary to Grant Shapps comment this morning:
"But Prof Wendy Barclay, who is heading up the G2P-UK National Virology Consortium, a newly launched project to study the effects of emerging coronavirus mutations, said one Brazilian variant of coronavirus had been detected in the UK.
"There are two different types of Brazilian variants and one of them has been detected and one of them has not."
It was "probably introduced some time ago", she added.
"And that will be being traced very carefully"." |  |

I bet it's not as good as our own world-beating strain. |  |

As a side issue
A newly arrived Bolivian family has been referred to us for aid, just before Christmas a group of Bolivians turned up looking for aid.
Having lived in Latin America I understand why folks think the streets of London are paved with gold, relatively speaking they are (were?), But given global pandemic restrictions have been in p!ace for almost a year now... How / why still able to just turn up in foreign country many thousands of miles away?
I know many used to enter UK by coach from Belfast having flown into Dublin, then travelled up, and maybe these folks came before 1at Jan.
In covid world this could be how transmission is enabled.
Also this newly arrived family are from a higher class than usual, you can tell - little or no manners towards others, certainly please / thank you appear to be missing from their vocabulary. An air of having someone do that for them... think the latest arrivals may struggle... |  |

Why is the BBC covering stories of people whinging about not being able to get the UK after going to spend Christmas with their families in Brazil or Portugal?
