Abstract
Coronaviruses have significantly changed 21st century medicine, healthcare systems, education, and the global economy by driving the ongoing coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. COVID-19 in humans is characterized by a wide range of symptoms, from asymptomatic to mild or severe illnesses, including death. The existing literature shows the roles of insect vectors in aiding the transmission of viral pathogens and the possible roles of some insects in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission. In this study, we briefly review the possibility of biological or mechanical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 by insects in the environment.
期刊介绍：
Advances in Animal and Veterinary Sciences is a peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to serve as a forum to share the knowledge on research advances in animal and veterinary sciences covering infectious and non-infectious diseases, production aspects and related public health concerns. Thrust areas including epidemiology, diagnosis, prevention and control of economically important, emerging and re-emerging pathogens of livestock, poultry and wild life are encouraged. We also welcome research on novel approaches for boosting animal production, nutrition and management, genetic improvement, and clinical and paraclinical veterinary care.
