Abstract SARS-CoV-2 continues to transmit and evolve in humans and animals. White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) have been previously identified as a zoonotic reservoir for SARS-CoV-2 with high rates of infection and probable spillback into humans. Here we report sampling 1,127 white-tailed deer (WTD) in Pennsylvania, and a genomic analysis of viral dynamics spanning 1,017 days between April 2021 and January 2024. To assess viral load and genotypes, RNA was isolated from retropharyngeal lymph nodes and analyzed using RT-qPCR and viral whole genome sequencing. Samples showed a 14.64% positivity rate by RT-qPCR. Analysis showed no association of SARS-CoV-2 prevalence with age, sex, or diagnosis with Chronic Wasting Disease. From the 165 SARS-CoV-2 positive WTD, we recovered 25 whole genome sequences and an additional 17 spike-targeted amplicon sequences. The viral variants identified included 17 Alpha, 11 Delta, and 14 Omicron. Alpha largely stopped circulating in humans around September 2021, but persisted in WTD as recently as March of 2023. Phylodynamic analysis of pooled genomic data from Pennsylvania documents at least 12 SARS-CoV-2 spillovers from humans into WTD, including a recent series of Omicron spillovers. Prevalence was higher in WTD in regions with crop coverage rather than forest, suggesting an association with proximity to humans. Analysis of seasonality showed increased prevalence in winter and spring. Multiple examples of recurrent mutations were identified associated with transmissions, suggesting WTD-specific evolutionary pressures. These data document ongoing infections in white-tailed deer, probable onward transmission in deer, and a remarkable rate of new spillovers from humans.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
