Doesn't India have alot of monkeys hanging out around tourists stealing food and stuff. Could one get infected from eating leftover food.

I understand they proved the coronavirus hypotheses by infecting monkeys with the virus and having them exhibit the same symptoms as humans. Does that likely mean that monkeys and humans will be able to pass the virus back and forth? I can't see monkeys obeying quarantine restrictions voluntarily.

Monkeys would be a disaster in the environment infected with SARS.
