Vets begin offering coronavirus tests for PETS in Germany, and warn cats are the most likely to be infected
German vets are offering a coronavirus test for cats and dogs after virologists found they are susceptible to the disease.
Scientists at the Free University of Berlin are carrying out PCR tests similar to those on humans to detect whether Covid-19 has spread to pets. One virologist said cats appeared to be more vulnerable than dogs and could become 'carriers'. However, there have been no reported cases of humans being infected by their pets. Belgian authorities announced the first case of an infected cat last month, and a second was later reported in Hong Kong.
