International war "epidemic" operation
Science and Technology Daily (Reporter Liu Xia) According to reports from Fox News and CBS on February 9, researchers at Penn State University in the United States said they found a mutant strain of the new coronavirus in New York white-tailed deer.
The researchers said they tested nasal swab samples from 68 deer captured in Staten Island, New York, between Dec.
Researchers believe that deer will only transmit the new coronavirus to their own kind, but there are also concerns that the new coronavirus may mutate and "spill" from deer into other species or into the animal-human transmission chain
"The spread of the virus in animals increases the likelihood of infecting humans and, more importantly, provides more opportunities for the virus to mutate again," said Penn State veterinary microbiologist Suresh Kuchipudi, who led the new study.
Scientists have previously known that deer can be infected with the new coronavirus, Kuchipudi said
Kuchipudi also said that the spread of Omicron from humans to deer is worrying, and there may also be a new, vaccine-resistant variant of the new coronavirus that has evolved in non-human hosts, but has not yet been discovered by humans.
The USDA has previously reported animals infected with the new coronavirus, including dogs, cats, tigers, lions, snow leopards, otters, gorillas, minks and deer
