Understanding the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) exposure in companion, captive, wild, and farmed animals

Hannah L. Murphy et al.

Summary: Several animal species, including pets like cats and dogs, have been shown to be susceptible to human coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2. Cats have been found to replicate the virus more efficiently than dogs and can transmit it through aerosols. Ongoing surveillance efforts are crucial to understand the impact of SARS-CoV-2 exposure in animals and the potential zoonotic transmission risks during the COVID-19 pandemic.
