Zoonosis and Virus Behavior - a podcast by David Kurlander

There is a lot of controversy, misleading information, and conflicting theories about how viruses such as COVID-19 affects our furry family members or if it can be carried and spread by them. This is a topic that comes up many times during my behavior consultations as well as listener emails and social media messages. In this episode, we will have an educated discussion with returning guest Dr. Christos Suriano, on how viruses behave and if our furry family members are safe and sound.
Here are some links to research papers that back up our discussion;
