Kate and Nancy discuss Equine Coronavirus as an emerging viral disease in adult horses and the parallels, it seems to exhibit, with our current human pandemic. (There is no evidence to indicate that horses could contract SARS-CoV-2 or that horses may be involved in the spread of SARS-CoV-2 to other animals or humans.)

*Out of 132/600 (2 to 4 years old) race horses that were exposed to equine coronavirus 22% were positive with symptoms (10% of these horses were reported to have GI symptoms).
