The coronavirus that dogs and cats get is not contagious from dog to dog or cat to cat or animal to animal so no humans cannot get the coronavirus from cats or dogs or any other animals.

However the human coronavirus can be spread from person to person but if your cat or dog has the coronavirus you cannot get the coronavirus from the cat or dog.

The coronavirus is usually diagnosed through blood tests as well as respiratory tests and by swabbing your nose and possibly inside of your mouth.

The coronavirus can cause symptoms similar to the regular flu but the coronavirus is much worse than the flu and can be more deadly than the flu.

Runny nose, coughing, fever and even a sore throat are all signs and symptoms of the coronavirus as well as feeling weak and fatigued and possibly being confused.

The coronavirus can be very dangerous for some people especially for children, babies, toddlers and older adults.

The younger you are and the older you are the worse the coronavirus is for you.

You need to seek medical treatment if you think you may have or you have the coronavirus as there have been several people who have already died as a result of the coronavirus.

Even when you get treatment for the coronavirus the coronavirus can still cause death but getting treatment increases your chance of survival.

There's no real cure as of now for the coronavirus but treatments can help.

As of January 2020 there have been several people who have died from the coronavirus so by that I would say that the coronavirus is a pretty serious and dangerous virus.
