A Columbia University study of New York City rats discovered a large number of pathogens in these feared rodents.

  • Some cause food-borne illnesses.
  • Others were never found in New York before.
  • The rats had at least 18 unknown viruses.

“Given the close quarters shared by rats and New Yorkers, this is a recipe for a public health nightmare.” said Peter Daszak, the president of EcoHealth Alliance, a scientific organization that researches the links between human health and wildlife.
