Abstract

Amaç: Yirmi birinci yüzyılda, sağlık alanındaki aşı ve terapötik ajanlarla ilgili gelişmeler ve enfeksiyon yönetimindeki iyileştirmelere rağmen hala insan ve hayvanlarda ölümcül olabilen yeni viral salgınlar ortaya çıkmaktadır. Yarasa kökenli olan ve ara konağı hala tartışılan, zoonoz COVID-19 enfeksiyonu Aralık 2019 yılında Çin’in Wuhan eyaletinde bir hayvan pazarı ziyaret geçmişi olan insanlarda ortaya çıkmıştır. Dünya Sağlık Örgütü, Şubat 2020 tarihinde hastalığın pandemik bir enfeksiyon olduğunu ilan etmiştir. Milyonlarca insan bu salgından etkilenmiştir. Salgın mücadelesinin ekonomik yönden büyük maliyeti olmuş ve olmaya da devam etmektedir. İnsanlar yaşam rutinlerini değiştirmiştir. Bu süreçte arkadaş (companion) hayvanların insanlarla yakın ilişkisi dolayısıyla COVID-19 hastalığına yakalanması, etkeni taşıması, tekrar insanlara bulaştırması ile ilgili kaygılar yaşanmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı kedi, köpek, hamster ve atlar gibi arkadaş hayvanlarda COVID-19 varlığı ve bulaşı ile ilgili çalışmaların incelenmesidir.

Sonuç ve Tartışma: Yapılan çalışmalarda arkadaş hayvanların çoğunun (kedi, köpek ve hamster) SARS-CoV-2'ye duyarlı olduğu ve insanların onlar için bir enfeksiyon kaynağı olabileceği bildirilmiştir. Ancak arkadaş hayvanların insanlara hastalık bulaştırmasındaki potansiyel rolü tam olarak bilinmemektedir. Bu son salgında, enfeksiyöz etkenlerin özellikle zoonoz olanlarının tek sağlık konseptinde epidemiyolojik olarak araştırılmasının gerekliliği bir kez daha ortaya çıkmıştır.

THE ROLE OF COMPANION ANIMALS IN SPREADING COVID-19

Abstract

Objective: In the twenty-first century, despite the development in infection management, and improvement of vaccines and therapeutic agents in the field of health, new viral outbreaks that can still be fatal in humans and animals are emerging. The infection of zoonosis COVID-19 from bat origin, the intermediate host of which is still being unclear, has appeared in people who visited animal bazaar in December 2019, in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization declared this infection a pandemic in February 2020. Millions of people have been affected by this pandemic. The fight against the pandemic has had a great economic cost and continues to do so. Even people have changed their lifestyle. In this context, there have been concerns about companion animals with COVID-19 transmission, from human to animal or animal to human. The purpose of this review was to examine the studies on the presence and transmission of COVID-19 in companion animals such as cats, dogs, hamsters and horses.

Result and Discussion: It has been reported in studies that most of the companion animals (cat, dog and hamster) were susceptible to SARS-CoV-2, and humans could be a source of infection for them. However, the potential role of companion animals in transmission to humans is not fully known. It is clear from this pandemic that the necessity of epidemiological investigation of infectious agents, especially zoonotic ones, in one health concept has emerged once again.
