The pathogenic potential of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus has not yet been realized, the next stage of the COVID-19 pandemic will be the infection of domestic and farm animals, said the director of the Gamalei National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology, Alexander Ginzburg.
“The coronavirus has not yet realized its pathogenic potential. The next stage is the infection of farm and domestic animals,” Gunzburg said in an interview published on Monday in the “Izvestia” newspaper.
“And when we protect humanity with the help of good vaccines within a year, pets will be infected by that time, and no one is going to get rid of their beloved pets. Therefore, the sources of this pathogen will constantly be present around us, which will still evolve,” he added.
Therefore, according to him, people must be prepared for a long coexistence with this pathogen.”
