Canine coronavirus (CCoV), traditionally seen as a species-specific virus affecting dogs, has garnered attention due to its potential to infect humans. While historically considered non-transmissible to humans, recent studies, including one by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), suggest that certain strains, such as HuPn-2018, may have zoonotic capabilities. Although confirmed human cases remain rare, experts warn that the virus's ability to mutate could pose future risks. Currently, the risk of transmission from dogs to humans is extremely low, with no evidence of sustained human-to-human transmission. Pet owners are encouraged to practice basic hygiene, such as washing hands after handling pets and keeping sick animals isolated. This situation highlights the importance of ongoing surveillance of animal viruses to prevent potential outbreaks. As the world faces increasing zoonotic threats, understanding canine coronavirus and similar viruses is crucial for public health.
