[QUOTE="JTL, post: 2227338, member: 49289"] [SIZE=6][B]Hong Kong warns residents not to kiss pets after dog contracts coronavirus[/B][/SIZE] [B][I][SIZE=4]Pomeranian tested a ‘weak positive’ for virus after owner was infected, authorities say. The Pomeranian’s owner was infected with Covid-19 but the dog itself was not showing symptoms, authorities said. The Society for the Protection of Animals in Hong Kong said being infected was not the same as being infectious, and capable of spreading the virus. “While the information tells us that the dog has a low-level of infection members of the public should note that the dog is showing no symptoms whatsoever. We have been informed the dog is currently very healthy and doing well at the quarantine centre.” The world organisation for animal health also emphasised there was no evidence pets spread the disease, or even get sick themselves.
