A few weeks ago, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the spread of the COVID-19 novel coronavirus a global pandemic.

I’ve done a lot of research, and I share information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as well as the American Veterinary Medical Association in this episode.
