TL;DR: In the light of the urgency raised by the COVID-19 pandemic, global investment in wildlife virology is likely to increase, and new surveillance programs will identify hundreds of novel viruses that might someday pose a threat to humans.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors reviewed published evidence of human-to-wildlife transmission events, with a focus on how such events could threaten animal and human health, and identified 97 verified examples, involving a wide range of pathogens; however, reported hosts were mostly nonhuman primates or large, long-lived captive animals.

TL;DR: The epidemiological dynamics of different viral infections are discussed to project how the transition from a pandemic to endemic Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) might take shape.

TL;DR: This article performed a systematic review of coronavirus sampling (testing for RNA positivity) in bats globally and identified 110 studies published between 2005 and 2020 that collectively reported positivity from 89,752 bat samples.
