BREAKING: The World Health Organization has announced that dogs cannot contract Covid-19. Dogs previously held in quarantine can now be released. To be clear, WHO let the dogs out.

2. A glimmer of good news.

I have some dog friends, even though I don't currently have a dog myself.

5. This tweet is just a joke and in no way factual.

The twitter user is just making a bad pun. She works for Fox and thinks this is all funny.

8. Well, that's just in bad taste.

Like everyone has time for terrible dark jokes right now!

4. More Chinese lies/propaganda

These lies are being put out to frighten people that have pets. They fear they will be collected and killed as they've done that before.

This is how China manages to control their people, with fear, panic and propaganda.

Everything coming out of China, like the closed hospitals and that there are few if any new COV cases is B.S.

It is complements of Xi.

His lies are being exposed.

To hell with you Xi!

You have a lot of blood on your hands Xi.

Are you satisfied yet?

6. Yes

But keep in mind that a dog petted by someone with the virus could still be a problem. How long can it survive on fur or wet noses?

7. However, if an infected person pets your dog

Then you pet your doggy then wash your hands immediately afterwards.

Or just don't let anyone pet your dogs.

[Dennis Donovan]

14. Phew! And, the originator of the joke deserves credit.

[EndlessWire]

10. Wasn't there news

of a dog that tested weakly for the virus? Was that a joke, too?

[Dennis Donovan]

11. There's been speculation they could carry coronavirus, but not contract COVID-19

I haven't heard much about it since.
