    Default Coronavirus Injected Into Cats By Scientists

    Coronavirus Injected Into Cats


    Coronavirus Outbreak Map . Com



    Researchers take coronavirus from human patients and infect cats with Coronavirus.
    Each cat is housed in a cage with another cat that tested negative for Coronavirus.




    Within five days, coronavirus was found in all newly exposed cats.


    None of the cats ever showed any coronavirus symptoms.


    “There was no sneezing, no coughing, they never had a high body temperature or lost any weight,” Halfmann said. “If a pet owner looked at them … they wouldn’t have noticed anything.”


    Scientists who led the research say it shows the need for more research into whether coronavirus can spread from people to cats to people again.


    Health experts have downplayed that possibility.

    The American Veterinary Medical Association said in a statement that just because an cat can be deliberately infected in a lab “does not mean that it will easily be infected with that same virus under natural conditions.”


    Anyone concerned about that risk should use “common sense hygiene,” said virus expert Peter Halfmann. Don’t kiss your pets and keep surfaces clean to cut the chances of picking up any virus an animal might shed, he said.



    University of Wisconsin School of Veterinary Medicine led the lab experiment and published results Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine. Federal grants paid for the work.

    How old are you? I'm guessing either 12 or 85.
