Let\u2019s try and answer some<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">questions you might have with regards to this topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">How widespread are coronaviruses?<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Disease from coronaviruses is very common in humans and animals. Many species have their own\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">version of coronavirus. In fact, one of the causes of the common cold in people is a coronavirus. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">What\u2019s\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">important to understand is that in general, these viruses stick with a species based on how their surface\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">proteins fit receptors on the cells of their target species, in a lock and key fashion. The reason this novel\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">corononavirus is such a threat is because it is new to our species, there is no immunity to it in the\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">population, it spreads easily, and it can cause severe disease.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">What is the source of the novel coronavirus?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">SARS-CoV-2, the official name of the new coronavirus, is thought to have jumped from animals to\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">humans. The exact source is still unknown, but, at the moment, the most likely explanation is that it\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">came from bats. You probably remember the SARS outbreak from 2003, which was caused by a similar\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">coronavirus. Bats were found to be the likely source of the virus in the 2003 SARS outbreak, and\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">probably passed it on to other animals that were sold in markets in China, such as the palm civet, a cat-<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">like animal. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Along the way the virus underwent mutations and finally was able to infect a new host \u2013<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">humans. Most importantly, it was able to spread from person to person. A similar mechanism was likely\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">at play for this new coronavirus outbreak but with new information coming forward, this idea may\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">change.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>How is the novel coronavirus different from coronavirus in cattle?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">The good news is that the bovine coronavirus we have in the US belongs to a different strain of<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">coronaviruses than the SARS-CoVs that have jumped to humans during the 2003 SARS and the current\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Covid19 outbreaks. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Bovine coronavirus is a cause of calf diarrhea, winter dysentery in adult cattle and is\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">thought to cause respiratory disease, for example as part of the shipping fever complex. There is no\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">expectation that the novel coronavirus can infect cattle or that the bovine coronavirus that is endemic in\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">the US causes disease in people. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">There is also no evidence that imported animals or animal products\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">pose a risk for spreading Covid19, according to the CDC.

However, just like in cattle,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">the coronaviruses in pigs are different and there is no evidence that pigs can get infected with SARS-\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">CoV-2 or that they can transmit and spread it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Should I worry about my pets?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">At this time, there are also no reports that pets can get infected with or transmit SARS-CoV-2.
