The first time we found Civet spread SARS

Experts have already found the civet spread "serious evidence" of SARS. The reporter learned yesterday from the Guangzhou Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention that a female worker working in a restaurant had been infected with SARS in 2004. The researchers sampled six civet cats found in the restaurant and isolated the coronavirus. The virus gene sequence of the patient was compared and found to be basically the same. This is the first time in the world that the civet cat has been directly linked to the SARS virus. This research achievement has recently won the second prize of the Guangzhou Science and Technology Award.

Wang Ming, director of the Guangzhou Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, told reporters that prior to this, researchers had isolated the coronavirus from market-selling civet cats, but did not find a direct link between the civet and SARS patients. In early 2004, a female worker working in a restaurant was diagnosed with SARS. The examination revealed that the restaurant had six civet cats. The researchers realized that this was a good opportunity to trace the source of SARS. Instead of destroying the SARS routinely, the six civet cats were brought back to the laboratory and sampled from the civet for a period of time. The results were continuous. The coronaviruses were isolated from this day. By comparing with the patient's gene sequence, the results were basically the same.

It is reported that the study was conducted by the Guangzhou Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention in cooperation with the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the University of Hong Kong. The results of the study were published in the American medical journal The Emerging Infectious Diseases, and recently won the second prize of the Guangzhou Science and Technology Award. .

Wang Ming also revealed that prior to the culling of civet raccoon, the CDC of Guangzhou Municipality and the staff of the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) preempted the sampling of civet bees on the market. As a result, out of the 91 civet cats, 84 detected coronal virus. All this shows that the government’s decision to cull the civet cat was decisive.

In view of the unscrupulous businesses that quietly put the civet cats on the table at a time earlier, experts said that the civet cats spread SARS badges and they should be careful to eat wild animals.
