MSN reported this morning that a family dog in a Duke University test is the first dog in the U.S. to test positive for the COVID-19 virus. They also reported that last month Hong Kong reported the first dog ever to be positive for the virus, and was likely to have been the first human-to-animal transmission of the virus.
In North Carolina, the dog is a pug named Winston, and lives in Chapel Hill. They also claimed out of the family of four humans, only three tested positive. There are also another dog and a cat in the home who did not test positive.
We wish Winston and his humans a speedy recovery!
