4 FINAL REMARKS
The possibilities of ticks to transmit the virus was hypothesized.
Proving or disproving this hypothesis for the emergence of SARS-CoV-2
might be possible. Since, such viruses may be asymptomatic in their
hosts, but the balance may be tipped over, and overt disease or
behavioural aberrations may occur due to ecosystem and climate
alterations. In some instances, such viruses may cross a species barrier
and affect other tick species, wildlife species, domestic animals and
humans. Nonetheless, isolation of coronavirus-like from a range of
animals, including ticks may possibly assist to clarify the steps to
emergence in humans. Therefore,
the role of ticks to transmit the virus needs more attention. These
could lead to more efficient measures to block the rise of another
coronavirus epidemic with persistent transmission in humans.
