Abba_S, Korach also used “common sense” (Rav Soloveichik called it the “common sense rebellion against Torah authority”). The chances of an animal infecting a person with COVID-19 are very low. Even if this were not so, the vast majority who get the viruses would not be affected or only slightly affected. That is why epidemiologists agree that it is at least theoretically possible. Whether or not this is a practical possibility depends on people. If you have not gotten the jab get it!
