    Was it a decent quality battery?  Not a Poundland special? 

    As you've only had it a few weeks, is the spare key still in the car?  Accidentally left in the glovebox or something?

    I have (very rarely) still had a "dud", even with a "premium" brand. Having learned that lesson I check the voltage of the new battery before installing. Fresh battery would normally be around 3.3v.

    Getting greasy fingerprints on the surface of the battery can also cause problems - quite a possibility at present as sanitizing gel is everywhere.
