MODERATORS
Technically, it's not a Covid strain, but another strain of the coronavirus that is not transmissible to humans. As far as current medical knowledge goes, FIP is caused by a mutation of the feline coronavirus and is deadly if untreated. Besides cats, big cats (like lions) and also ferrets can actually also get FIP. Dogs, humans etc can't develop FIP. I actually know of one ferret in Germany that was successfully treated against FIP with GS-441524! :)
