Reverse-Zoonotic Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 Lineage Alpha (B.1.1.7) to Great Apes and Exotic Felids in a Zoo in the Czech Republic

2022-01-10

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>We report an outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 lineage alpha in gorillas and felid species in a zoo in Prague, Czech Republic. The course of illness and clinical signs are described, and the particular SARS-CoV-2 variants are characterized by next generation sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. The putative transmission routes are also inferred.</p>
