SARS-CoV-2 exposure in Norway rats ( <i>Rattus norvegicus</i> ) from New York City

2022-11-21

Abstract excerpt

Millions of Norway rats ( Rattus norvegicus )inhabit New York City (NYC), presenting the potential for transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from humans to rats and other wildlife. We evaluated SARS-CoV-2 exposure among 79 rats captured from NYC during the fall of 2021. Results showed that 13 of 79 rats (16.5%) tested IgG or IgM positive, and partial genomes of SARS-CoV-2 were recovered from four rats that were qRT-PCR posi...
