Susceptibility of domestic swine to experimental infection with SARS-CoV-2 2020-09-10 .txt text/plain 1917 107 52 The work reported here aims to determine whether domestic swine are susceptible to 63 SARS-CoV-2 infection, providing critical information to aid public health risk assessments. The data presented in 66 this study provides evidence live SARS-CoV-2 virus can persist in swine for at least 13 days 67 following experimental inoculation. Two pigs (20-10, 20-11) displayed low 237 levels of viral RNA by RT-qPCR at 3 DPI (Table 2, Detection of SARS-CoV-2 was also attempted from whole blood by RT-qPCR, following 253 the sampling schedule outlined in Table 1 . To identify potential target tissues or gross lesions consistent with SARS-CoV-2 disease, 261 necropsy was performed on two animals starting at 3 DPI and every other day up to day 15; with 262 an additional two pigs necropsied at both 22 and 29 DPI (Table 1) (Table 2) . The results presented in this study define domestic swine as a susceptible species albeit at 293 low levels to SARS-CoV-2 viral infection. ./cache/cord-275173-ely3aen3.txt ./txt/cord-275173-ely3aen3.txt
