Share on Pinterest Can cats and dogs contract the Alpha variant of SARS-CoV-2? Westend61/Getty Images- Researchers conducted a study to investigate whether there is a link between a spike in cardiac inflammation among cats and dogs and SARS-CoV-2.
- They found that the majority of pets studied had contracted SARS-CoV-2 shortly after it was either confirmed or suspected that their owners had the virus.
- The researchers conclude that pets can contract the B.1.1.7, or Alpha, variant of the virus. However, scientists will need to carry out more research to confirm how exactly it affects pets.
Several case reportsTrusted Source have emerged worldwide about pets, especially cats and dogs, contracting SARS-CoV-2 from their owners.
Symptoms were mostly mild and included mild digestive and respiratory issues, such as cough, runny nose, and sneezing.
The REAL issue is whether or not they can give it back EFFICIENTLY. So far that’s been documented only in minks and ferrets. Of course, that’s not the sort of research institutional review boards like to approve on an experimental basis.
