Highly contagious virus has killed over a dozen rabbits in Connecticut and South Carolina this week: Virus can be transmitted by humans but won't infect them, experts say
2022-09-19
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Jumping species?
LOOK OUT, fluffy bunnies!
  • Veterinarians in South Carolina revealed a sudden die off in feral rabbits Thursday

  • And on Tuesday those in Connecticut said fourteen had died from a virus

  • The infections were diagnosed as rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus type-2 (RHDV2)

  • They warned although humans cannot catch the virus, it can be spread by them

  • Rabbit owners in the state should wash their hands with warm soapy water before going into rabbitries to avoid spreading the disease to their pets
OZ has always had an invasive rabbit problem — they could use this disease.
