This has all the hallmarks of yet another panic-bait-article... One sentence in the whole article renders it completely and utterly irrelevant. About the other cases, the article itself says:
All had mild cases and recovered without being hospitalized.
So all that's in this "news report" is that there are diseases that affect animals but not humans which can on occasion jump to humans but usually are pretty harmless then because they are equipped to deal with a cat's immune system, but not with a human immune system. This becomes irrelevant once said human immune system isn't working right.
This is not "breaking news". There is a loooong and ever changing list of pathogens in exactly this situation and there always will be.
