90% Informative

World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020 , after first reported cases of SARS-CoV-2.

Researchers have documented human-to-animal transmission, colloquially referred to reverse zoonotic transmission, in both domestic and wild animals.

Their research suggests that looking at historical outbreaks can help predict and prevent the next pandemic.

There is already evidence of deer-to-human transmission of a previously unseen variant of COVID-19 .

Genetic evidence suggests SARS-CoV-2 evolves three times faster in white-tailed deer than in humans.

H5N1 has affected 178 livestock herds in 13 states as of August 2024 .
