The COVID-19 pandemic has affected animals directly and indirectly. SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is zoonotic, which likely to have originated from animals such as bats and pangolins. [1] [2] [3] Human impact on wildlife and animal habitats may be causing such spillover events to become much more likely.
In early 2022, Canadian researchers announced the discovery of a new SARS-CoV-2 variant within a November–December 2021 study of Ontario white-tailed deer, labeling it the "Ontario WTD clade". The new COVID variant also infected a person who had close contact with local deer, potentially marking the first instance of deer-to-human transmission.
A CDC study published Thursday found that for adolescents born in 2007, about 65% were fully vaccinated for HPV by age 15, compared with 60% of those born in 2008. The CDC attributes this ...
COVID-19 pandemic. SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, was first introduced to humans through zoonosis (transmission of a pathogen to a human from an animal), and a zoonotic spillover event is the origin of COVID-19 that is considered most plausible by the scientific community. [a] Human coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2 are zoonotic ...
The findings in the new report come from the analysis of nearly 1,300 death certificates of Oregon residents ages 16 to 30 who died from any heart condition or unknown reasons between June 1, 2021 ...
In August 2021, a number of American conservative talk radio hosts who had discouraged COVID-19 vaccination, or expressed skepticism toward the COVID-19 vaccine, died from COVID-19 complications. [ 6][ 7] These included 65-year-old Marc Bernier, self-nicknamed "Mr. Antivax", from Daytona, Florida; [ 13] 65-year-old Dick Farrel, who referred to ...
Dozens of captive animal species have been found infected or proven able to be experimentally infected with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The virus has also been found in over a dozen wild animal species. Most animal species that can get the virus have not been proven to be able to spread it back to humans.
Marty Verel, a 59-year-old kidney transplant recipient in Ohio, should have been near the top of the list to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. Yet like millions of others, he wasn’t having any luck ...
