Six common wildlife species in Virginia have high rates of the virus that causes COVID-19 — a disease they likely caught from humans. The virus has been found in deer mice, Virginia opossum, raccoons, groundhogs, Eastern cottontails and Eastern red bats, according to findings in Nature. “I think the big take home message is the virus is pretty ubiquitous,” said Amanda Goldberg of the Virginia Tech Department of Biological Sciences.

"Extraordinary, isn't it? I've been hearing all about COP," said the queen to the duchess of Cornwall. "Still don't know who is coming. … We only know about people who are not coming. … It's really irritating when they talk but they don't do."
