Ezinye Izilwane

Abantu babonakala bekwazi ukusabalalisa leli gciwane kwezinye izilwane, uhlobo lokudluliswa kwezifo olubizwa nge-zooanthroponosis.

Ezinye izilwane ezifuywayo, ikakhulukazi amakati nama-ferrets, zingalithola leli gciwane kubantu abanaleli gciwane. [] Izimpawu emakati zihlanganisa ukuphefumula (okufana nokukhwehlela) kanye nezimpawu zokugaya ukudla. [] Amakati angasabalalisa leli gciwane kwamanye amakati, futhi angakwazi ukusabalala igciwane liya kubantu, kepha ukudluliswa kwekati-kuya-kumuntu kwe-SARS-CoV-2 akukatholakali. Uma kuqhathaniswa namakati, izinja azisengozini yokungenwa yileli gciwane.Iziphathimandla ezandisa ubungozi bokudlulisa zibandakanya ukuqabula, ukukhotha, nokuphulula isilwane


Umlando

Leli gciwane kucatshangwa ukuthi lingokwemvelo futhi livela ezilwaneni, [] ngokutheleleka nge-spillover. [] Kunemibono eminingi yokuthi icala lokuqala (okuthiwa yi-patient zero) lavelaphi futhi uphenyo ngemvelaphi yalolu bhubhane luyaqhubeka.
