Seaweed - do you think that reports such as this affect some raw feeders to the extent that they would decide to give up? I also wondered if increased awareness of infection control due to Covid-19 might have an effect on pet owners who raw feed, although this is viral, not bacterial.

Dottie, maybe just a few decide to move away from raw but raw feeders seem to be very passionate in this way of feeding and wouldn't move away lightly. Vet Nick Thompson gave a critique on this study https://www.facebook.com/RawFeedingVets/posts/2560101177587965?__tn__=K-R
