During the global Mpox outbreak, the potential role of dogs and cats in the epidemiological chain of monkeypox virus was suspected. Additionally, Brazil is endemic for vaccinia virus and the recently described Brazilian porcupinepox virus, both of which require further investigation regarding their potential reservoirs. Given that dogs and cats are among the most popular pets worldwide and that poxvirus infections could impact multispecies households, this study aimed to assess the circulation of poxviruses in pets during the Mpox pandemic. A pan-pox polymerase chain reaction assay was applied to blood samples from 608 dogs and 271 cats. Despite the potential for detecting poxviruses in companion animals, no molecular evidence of poxvirus infection was found in the studied population.
在全球猴痘疫情期间，人们怀疑犬类和猫类在猴痘病毒的流行病学传播链中可能发挥的作用。此外，巴西是痘苗病毒和最近发现的巴西豪猪痘病毒的地方性流行区，这两种病毒的潜在宿主都需要进一步调查。鉴于犬类和猫类是全球最受欢迎的宠物之一，且痘病毒感染可能影响多物种家庭，本研究旨在评估猴痘大流行期间宠物中痘病毒的传播情况。对608只犬和271只猫的血液样本进行了泛痘病毒聚合酶链反应检测。尽管有可能在伴侣动物中检测到痘病毒，但在所研究的群体中未发现痘病毒感染的分子证据。
