Change in SARS-CoV-2 variants transmissibility and patterns for transmission among human and animal populations. The transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2 VOCs increased over strains during human-to-human transmission. And substantial evidence reveals the SARS-CoV-2 transmission from humans to various mammalian animals as reported by OIE (https://www.oie.int/en/what-we-offer/emergency-and-resilience/covid-19/). There have been cases reporting the transmission between animal populations and animals to humans, making wild animals or pets a potential reservoir for viral preservation and evolution.
