Serologic Surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 Infection among Wild Rodents, Europe

Abstract

We report results from serologic surveillance for expo­sure to SARS-CoV-2 among 1,237 wild rodents and small mammals across Europe. All samples were negative, with the possible exception of 1. Despite suspected potential for human-to-rodent spillover, no evidence of widespread SARS-CoV-2 circulation in rodent populations has been reported to date.
