Scotland’s chief medical officer resigned Sunday after she failed to follow her government’s coronavirus stay-at-home rules.
A tiger at the Bronx Zoo in New York City has tested positive for coronavirus and six other big cats are showing symptoms, the zoo said in a statement.
"We tested the cat out of an abundance of caution and will ensure any knowledge we gain about COVID-19 will contribute to the world’s continuing understanding of this novel coronavirus," the zoo said, adding the test result was confirmed by the USDA’s National Veterinary Services Laboratory. Other big cats are not showing symptoms and the zoo said it has put"appropriate preventive measures" in place for the staff caring for the sick animals.U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson taken to hospital due to persistent coronavirus symptomsU.K.
