Vets receive medication originally meant for people amid virulent feline coronavirus that has killed thousands of cats

The island’s health ministry began discharging the treatment on 8 August – long celebrated as International Cat Day – in what is hoped will be the beginning of the end of the disease that has struck the Mediterranean country’s feline population.
