摘要
As of October 2022, a total of 675 natural outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 infection have occurred in animal species worldwide. Here, we provide a linguistic and etymologic critique of the term "pandemic" being used to describe the COVID-19 health crisis, as opposed to the term "panzootic," and discuss policy ramifications of more inclusive terminology.
