Yale University was awarded a $722,405 cooperative agreement from the United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service under the federal Plant and Animal Disease, Pest Control, and Animal Care grant program (CFDA 10.025). The purpose of this two-year award effective June 1, 2023 is to develop a sustainable regional coronavirus surveillance system in the Northeast through existing infrastructure in Connecticut.

Yale will partner with the Connecticut Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory (CVMDL) and the Connecticut Department of Agriculture to test wildlife and domestic animal samples submitted through routine disease surveillance. The University of Connecticut sub-awardee, through CVMDL, will collect oropharyngeal and fecal samples from deceased animals submitted for diagnostic purposes to test for SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses. Yale will also assess coronavirus shedding in wild rodents in partnership with other organizations. Surveillance data will inform mathematical models assessing the risk of spillback infection in humans. The project aims to establish an early warning system to identify and limit future coronavirus outbreaks.
