Wild animals have been implicated as the origin of SARS-CoV-2, but it is largely unknown how the virus affects most wildlife species and if wildlife could ultimately serve as a reservoir for maintaining the virus outside the human population. Here we show that several common peridomestic species, including deer mice, bushy-tailed woodrats, and striped skunks, are susceptible to infection and can shed the virus in respiratory secretions. In contrast, we demonstrate that cottontail rabbits, fox squirrels, Wyoming ground squirrels, black-tailed prairie dogs, house mice, and racoons are not susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Our work expands upon the existing knowledge base of susceptible species and provides evidence that human-wildlife interactions could result in continued transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

哺乳动物对SARS-CoV-2感染的易感性调查

野生动物被认为是SARS-CoV-2的起源,但很大程度上未知该病毒如何影响大多数野生生物种类,以及野生生物是否最终可以作为将病毒保持在人类之外的库。在这里,我们显示了几种常见的蠕动物种,包括鹿小鼠,丛生的树尾类松鼠和条纹臭鼬,都容易感染并且可以将病毒从呼吸道分泌物中排出。相比之下,我们证明棉尾兔,狐狸松鼠,怀俄明州地松鼠,黑尾土拨鼠,家鼠和浣熊对SARS-CoV-2感染不敏感。我们的工作扩展了现有的易感物种知识库,并提供了证据,表明人与野生生物的相互作用可能导致SARS-CoV-2继续传播。
