  1. Yonhap News Agency, January 24th. South Korea ’s State Prime Minister Ding Shijun said on the 24th when he held a meeting of the Central Disaster Security Countermeasures that South Korea’ s first report was confirmed to confirm the new crown virus infection. The epidemic prevention department discovered and confirmed that pets were diagnosed with new coronal viruses. Ding Shiji requested the possibility of investigating the new coronal virus between people and animals from a scientific perspective, and announced relevant content. He also issued instructions to the Ministry of Food and Food and Food of Agriculture, Forestry, and Foods that the epidemic prevention department jointly formulated a codes for epidemic prevention to eliminate national concerns.
    In South Korea's "South Korea Pioneer" report, the first case of the country's first animal infection virus appeared a few weeks ago in the southeast of South Korea. "Patient" is a pet kitten. The testing of pet cats and dogs is expected to follow the capital of the capital elsewhere.
    Mi Municipal Government is responsible for disease control Park Yoo-Mi at an online press conference that a group of health workers, including a veterinarian, will be tested near the pet home where the pet is located. Essence Only when cats and dogs have been exposed to the results of the new crown detection results, they have symptoms such as fever, cough, dyspnea, and increased nose secretions in the eyes. Park Yumei also said that most pets do not show symptoms.
    If the test results of pets are positive, then the health department will ask the owner to isolate the pet at home for 14 days without having to send it to the isolation place, because there is no evidence that the new crown pneumonia can be transmitted from pets to humans, and the current new crown Viruses can still be limited from humans to some pets.
    Is if the pet owner is infected with the new coronal virus, or has potential diseases, or for the age of age, it is not possible to take care of pets, and the health department will also bring pets to a city isolation place in western Seoul for isolation.
    Pu Youmei reminded the citizens of Seoul: "When walking the dog, please keep the dog and the other pets at least 2 meters away, strictly abide by the prevention measures such as masks, hand -wash At present, several animals, including cats and dogs, have been infected with new coronary viruses. The test results of the test results of at least two gorillas in San Diego Zoo, California, USA are positive. In Denmark, the world's largest mink produced, a mutant new crown virus was found on the country's breeding mink, which caused the country to slaughter all the breeding mink.
    "Science" has reported that there is no need for pet vaccines for urgent use of pet vaccines. The pet symptoms infected with the new coronal virus seem to be relatively mild, and it seems that cats and dogs have not played an important role in the spread of the new crown. The US pet vaccine commercial license is approved by the US Department of Agriculture. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has not yet approved any COVID-19 vaccine. The agency said that "data indicates that this vaccine is not worth." Joelle Hayden, a spokesman for the Agricultural Department of the United States, told Science: "The company can still develop these vaccines freely, but there is no license. These companies cannot sell or distribute." From the perspective of cell receptor, SARS-COV-2 can infect various animals such as squirrels to sheep and even fragrant whales. Ecohealth Science and promotion Vice President Jonathan Epstein said in an interview with "Science" that the most concerned is gorillas. Emanstein said that human respiratory virus was fatal among chimpanzees and gorillas in the past. Researchers were worried that the new crown virus may eliminate the long -categorian species of Africa and Asia on the verge of extinction.
    Elingstan said that in view of the outbreak of a new crown epidemic in mink farms, this virus may be mutated, which will not only spread to people, but also spread to wild animals. The best way to protect them for mink and ape is to change our way of interaction with them. For example, mink breeding is very high, which is likely to promote the spread of viruses. Regardless of whether people have inoculated the new crown vaccine by themselves, they should take additional preventive measures on animals that may infect the new crown virus. For example, people who want to contact gorillas should wear masks.
    The new crown animal vaccine is relatively easy to make. Russia recently announced that it will complete clinical trials for new crown vaccines such as domestic animals and pets such as mink and cats. American Veterinary Medicine Company ZOETIS is also studying the vaccine used for mink and pets. The latest data provided by the company shows that cats and dogs have a strong immune response to virus molecules or antigens, although it is not clear whether it is sufficient to protect them from infection.

  2. Cats and dogs have a lot of contact with people. If cats and dogs have a new coronal virus, it is easy to spread to people. Therefore, in order to prevent cats and dogs from spreading viruses, Seoul also tested pet cats and dogs.
