For the time being, COVID-19 continues to be treated as a human disease with the main route of transmission between humans (zoonotic potential under investigation). These cases were detected in the frame of a research project screening antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in cattle from Switzerland. The project is in the responsibility of the Clinical Laboratory of the Vetsuisse Faculty (VSF) of the University of Zurich (UZH). The sample material was residual material submitted to the diagnostic laboratory for routine diagnostic purposes. No information was available concerning a potential contact of the animals to COVID-19 affected owners or animal caretakers.
