SARS-CoV-2 surveillance in a veterinary health system provides insight into transmission risks. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to check how common SARS-CoV-2 is in pets and exotic animals within a veterinary healthcare system.
  • A total of 341 animals were tested, including 86 dogs, 25 cats, and 6 exotic pets, using swabs and blood samples.
  • Findings showed that 1.6% of dogs and 1.1% of cats tested positive for the virus, while 12.8% of dogs and 12.0% of cats had antibodies, indicating potential past infections.

Article Abstract

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and seropositivity of SARS-CoV-2 in companion and exotic animals in a veterinary healthcare system.

Sample: A total of 341 animals were sampled by a combination of oral and nasal swabs. Serum from whole blood was collected from a subset of animals (86 canines, 25 felines, and 6 exotic animals).

Methods: After informed owner consent, convenience samples from client-owned animals and the pets of students and staff members associated with Colorado State University's Veterinary Health System were collected between May 2021 and September 2022. Study samples were collected by trained veterinarians, Veterinary Health System staff, and veterinary students.

Results: SARS-CoV-2 RNA was detected by reverse transcription PCR in 1.6% (95% CI, 0.5% to 4.6%) of domestic canines and 1.1% (95% CI, 0.2% to 6.1%) of domestic felines. No RNA was detected in any of the exotic animal species tested (n = 66). Plaque reduction neutralization tests indicated that 12.8% (95% CI, 7.3% to 21.5%) of canines and 12.0% (95% CI, 4.2% to 30.0%) of felines had neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.

Clinical Relevance: This study provides insight regarding SARS-CoV-2 spillover in domestic companion and exotic animals and contributes to our understanding of transmission risk in the veterinary setting.
