    Introduction: overseas media reported that SARS patient byy was found in Guangdong Province on January 5 The World Health Organization and the Ministry of health of China announced that a suspected case of SARS reported in Guangdong Province of China on December 27, 2003 was confirmed as a case of SARS This is the first confirmed case of SARS in mainland China since the SARS epidemic was effectively controlled in 2003 In June and July of last year, Dr LV Zongji, together with relevant experts in the province, conducted experimental analysis on more than 100 kinds of animals in South China Agricultural University Besides most of the wild animals, there are also cats, dogs, pigs, chickens, rabbits, horses, cattle, mice and other domestic animals The experiment lasted for more than two months The results showed that except for dogs and cats, all the domestic animals and wild animals had virus genes related to human SARS virus Byy "of course, there are also coronaviruses in kittens and puppies, but they are not the same as the SARS virus in human body We exclude them in the detection." According to Dr Lu, past experiments have shown that almost all animals carry coronaviruses, "there are many kinds of coronaviruses, and SARS is the latest one."
