Canada Headlines News

Canada Latest News, Canada Headlines

Medical experts across Hong Kong as well as the World Organization for Animal Health were consulted, and “unanimously agreed that these results suggest that the dog has a low-level of infection and it is likely to be a case of human-to-animal transmission.”

The AFCD stated that, while proper hygiene practices should be observed before and after handling animals, “there is currently no evidence that pet animals can be a source of infection of COVID-19 or that they become sick.” Watch a special broadcast ‘Coronavirus: Facts vs. Fears’ LIVE Thursday at 7 p.m. EST on CTV News Channel

Is that the infected dog or just a random photo of a masked Chinese lady walking her dog?

If the dog has it, it’s pretty damn likely the owner gave it to them

Did this happen when they ate the animal?

Did they eat the fuckinthing er what ?

and STILL NO sanctions or condemnation of china for unleashing this bio weapon derived virus on humanity...

If my dog gives me coronavirus idc

Omg I truly hope this is wrong😢😢

They even said it was such a mild case . So no one really knows how contracted . This is fear mongering

BS! This is fear mongering! If people did a Lil research and not believe this tabloid trash ! Yes dogs and cats can test positive for trace amounts of convid19 but can not transfer it to humans!!

Highly unlikely a dog would be infected by yet another species jump. Much more likely the dog had trace amounts on nose/mouth but not infected.
