And your explanation for the Bristol one is?

I wonder how long it will be before theres a Black Country varient ?.
We have to keep our sense of humour,we brits are good at that.

Bristol is also a port

If we didn't have our warped sense of humour we might realise just how far up the creek without a paddle we are and actually begin to do something about it en masse. Maybe that's why people seem to riot more often abroad. Most of the time we just see the funny side and that stops us from taking direct action.

We can use the foreign import argument for at least the next month as most areas have an airport or ports

Lots of vehicles come in through Avonmouth - and are exported via there too.

I hope they have all been sanitised thoroughly.

The Avonmouth Variant is a great title for a disaster movie.

Oooh yes. Starring Keanu Reeves, Jason Statham, the one that was in Jurassic World, the one that was in the Circus film, gorgeous long haired one in Aquaman and Dwayne thingy from Jumani. I suppose there could be a actress in it too lol.

The virus mutates, therefore it can mutate in any area of the world. I understand certain conditions make mutations more likely, but the fact remains that the virus can mutate anywhere in the world.

Well said, maddyone. And it will mutate all over the world. The naming of various mutations is irrelevant.

No thanks! They've already had one tsunami here!

I would have thought Liverpool would have been blamed for the first variant phew what a relief!

Redhead56 Liverpool is next but one... after Belleek.

Funny vampirequeen when I told my friend, in the uk, that we have the English virus here, I was sharply told that is wasn’t called that name because it could have originated in any county. However she continued to talk about the SA one in the uk.
DGD’s secondary school has closed this week because of the virus anglais, for the first time since September.

As the virus will mutate there could be many variants. I just hope my little village doesn't have a variant named after it.

Oooh I love the Virus Anglais. Yes it started here but sounds as if it came from France
