Zoonotic spillover of SARS-CoV-2: mink-adapted virus in humans

2021-03-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 started in fall 2019. A range of different mammalian species, including farmed mink, have been confirmed as susceptible to infection with this virus. We report here the spillover of mink-adapted SARS-CoV-2 from farmed mink to humans after extensive adaptation that lasted at least 3 months. We found the presence of four mutations in the S gene (that gave...
