    Snippet: Other Pathogens-Testing Not Recommended Feline Coronavirus. Although cats can be subclinically infected with feline coronavirus, documentation of transmission of the virus by blood transfusion does not exist at this time. Screening of blood donor cats with serology or reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR is not recommended, because healthy cats can have antibody titers against feline coronavirus and also can be RT-PCR positive.

    Document: Other Pathogens-Testing Not Recommended Feline Coronavirus. Although cats can be subclinically infected with feline coronavirus, documentation of transmission of the virus by blood transfusion does not exist at this time. Screening of blood donor cats with serology or reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR is not recommended, because healthy cats can have antibody titers against feline coronavirus and also can be RT-PCR positive. The consensus of the panel was not to screen for coronavirus antibodies or RNA in clinically healthy cats being considered as blood donors.
