Concerns on the emerging research of sars-cov-2 on felines: Could they be significant hosts/reservoirs?
With the growing evidence of cases and studies showing natural and experimental infection due to SARS-CoV-2 in felines, including cats, lion, and tigers, there is also an increasing concern about its susceptibility and their role in urban cycles of SARS-CoV-2 transmission, initially from humans-toan...

| Summary: | With the growing evidence of cases and studies showing natural and experimental infection due to SARS-CoV-2 in felines, including cats, lion, and tigers, there is also an increasing concern about its susceptibility and their role in urban cycles of SARS-CoV-2 transmission, initially from humans-toanimals, but with uncertainty about reverse transmission. In this review, we addressed the evidence around this situation. |
