Besides the "Poison King" bat, what other famous viruses are hidden in natural reservoir?

Now we are threatened by novel coronavirus. For the safety of ourselves and others, we can only stay at home every day, and all this comes from a creature, that is, bats.

Most of us didn't know this creature before, but now we know it very well. It's called. Poison king? There are more than 100 viruses in the body. Is it really a highly pathogenic virus? Reservoir? .

Except? Poison king? Besides bats, which natural hosts carry famous viruses?

I think many people will think of civet cats as creatures. Yes, it was this creature that brought us SARS in 2003.

More than ten years have passed, and people who have experienced SARS are still fresh in their memories. To this day, the word "SARS" is still shocking.

It appeared quietly in the winter of 2002 and broke out in the spring of 2003. Strong infectivity, rapid spread and high mortality? . With the flow of infected people, it has spread all over the country and even around the world, and 24 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) have reported SARS cases.

For the first time in history, the World Health Organization has issued global travel advice to make people travel cautiously. This disease is called Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). The epidemic lasted for 8 months, swept through 26 countries, infected 8096 people and killed 774 people. Among them, China reported 7429 cases and 685 deaths.

All this is only caused by the virus carried by this seemingly harmless creature.

In addition to the above creatures, there is another creature called wild groundhog, which contains Yersinia pestis, the chief culprit of plague.

Now we seldom hear about the plague, thinking that it has disappeared, but it has not. What is a plague? Natural focus? Diseases, animals carrying Yersinia pestis are mainly mice, groundhogs and other animals. In other words, even if there is no human plague, the disease will not disappear, but will continue to spread among various rodents and other mammals, and mice will get sick, but the threat of plague is not as serious as human beings. ?

But now we don't need to worry about the death of the plague. Now the treatment of this disease is mature and completely controllable.

The above is some information I found for you, I hope it will help you.
