With the recent closing of Minnesota again. Surges in COVID-19 cases, I think that squirrel psychosis could be related to COVID-19. I believe the virus has mutated. As well as the transmission of squirrel psychosis seems hard to pinpoint, much like COVID. These types of viruses do mutate, but it seems as if it has found one path of mutation that seems quite different and this is what we are starting to call squirrel psychosis. I do believe they are related. But I believe even more that they are now separate conditions stemming from the same original virus. After some research there a few different ways viruses can mutate meaning you could mistake one form of the virus as a completely different disease, when it is very similar. This may seem like a stretch, but I do believe there is evidence that this is a possibility. -BB
