Epidemiology Source of the outbreak(s) or origin of infection Transmission from human to animal suspected Epidemiological comments Within a research carried out by a State University on domestic animals in COVID-19 positive homes, three domestic cats were sampled five days after the occurrence of symptoms in their owners (two people) who were COVID-19 positive. After the molecular results, the isolates from the owners and the animals were sequenced and a genetic cluster between them was established.
