The lack of a complete solution to the Corona virus epidemic still continues to make people nervous. The weak positive test of a dog’s corona virus in China recently caused people with pets to be nervous. Although a dog’s corona virus test in China is positive, experts explained that pets are not at risk. President of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. Will Sander explained that most of the cats and dogs are most likely not at risk, and the possibilities for animals to carry viruses that can infect humans are very low. Dr. “At the moment, people should not worry about the corona virus that can affect pets,” said Will Sander. The virus seems to have adapted to spread among humans. For this reason, it does not seem possible to infect dogs or cats. ” The World Health Organization also announced that no cases where pets were infected by the corona virus or that pets were carriers of the virus were not found. WHO added that people don’t have to panic because of this. Many types of viruses, including the common cold, do not spread between pets and humans. Although there is no finding about this condition of the new type of corona virus, there is no such case detected so far. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AWMA) has announced that there may be a problem with the test of the quarantined dog in China. If the test was previously opened or it is not measuring properly, it may cause the test to be positive. Experts say the risk is much lower if pets are constantly at home and not in contact with other animals. Dr. Will Sander explained that following the vaccination of pets correctly will lower the risk much more. The main method of protection recommended by experts to protect against the Corona virus is the constant washing of hands. Experts recommend a similar method of protection for people who think that pets can be infected. People who love pets can then completely eliminate the risk of virus infection if they wash and disinfect their hands properly. The habit of washing hands after loving animals should not only be seen as a precaution against corona virus. Viruses such as E. Coli and Salmonella can also be transmitted from animals. Washing hands will also be a good protection method against these viruses.
