Animals and the SARS-CoV-2 virus
Tracking the SARS-CoV-2 virus in
animals in 2023 |
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the SARS-CoV-2 virus has
been infecting many animal species, not just humans. For
example, the virus has spread to deer in the USA. It is estimated that about 40% of
dogs and cats end up becoming infected when their
owners are infected.
It is possible that new variants may emerge from that could
infect humans. Therefore, it is important to
continue to test animals for the virus in LA County, including
wildlife and pets.
