Värske uuring: Hiinas nakatus koroonaga rohkem kasse kui algul arvati

Teadlased võtsid proovid 102 kassilt ja neist 15 olid koroonaviiruse antikehad. Teadlaste arvates said loomad viiruse inimestelt.

Nüüd soovitavad teadlased koroonaga nakatunud inimestel olla ettevaatlikud ning kaitsta oma lemmikuid nakatumise eest, vahendab Daily Mail.

Teadlased tegid kindlaks, et Hiinas koroonaviiruse epitsentris Wuhanis nakatusid 10-15 protsenti kassidest. Ühelgi uuritud kassil polnud haiguse sümptomeid, aga viirus võib loomadele olla eluohtlik.
