2. INTRODUCTION
 A zoonosis is an infectious disease
that has jumped from a non-human
animal to humans. Zoonotic
pathogens may be bacterial, viral or
parasitic, or may involve
unconventional agents and can spread
to humans through direct contact or
through food, water or the
environment.

5. DEFINITION ZOONOSIS

7. WORLD ZOONOSES DAY 2022: THEME
 The theme of World Zoonoses Day 2021
is “Let’s Break the chain of Zoonotic
Transmission”. The theme of World
Zoonoses Day 2021 imparts the message
that the chain of transmission of Zoonotic
Diseases must be broken.

8. HISTORY OF WORLD ZOONOSES DAY
 On July 6, 1885, French biologist Louis Pasteur
successfully administered the first rabies vaccine to a little
boy bitten by a rabid dog. The vaccine not only prevented
the child from getting rabies; it saved his life.
 World Zoonoses Day 2022: History
 On 6th July,1885 Louis Pasteur, a French Biologist
successfully invented the first-ever vaccine for a
zoonotic disease Rabies. He successfully administered
the rabies vaccine to Joseph Meister who was bitten by a
dog and that dog was suffering from Rabies. The vaccine
prevented the man from getting the infection and saved
his life. This invention is considered as the successful
achievement in the field of medical science. To celebrate
this landmark World Zoonoses Day is observed.

9. WORLD ZOONOSES DAY 2022: SIGNIFICANCE
 World Zoonoses Day is celebrate to raise awareness
among the people about the zoonotic diseases and
teach them the methods to tackle this illness. People
should know the method to prevent and treat zoonotic
diseases because if not handled well this illness can
have a threatening impact on the lives of Human. If
the illness is not diagnosed then it can infect a large
mass of people and can even cause death. People
when get infected from a zoonotic disease should not
ignore but must look for the right remedy and get the
proper treatment. Some of the common zoonotic
disease

10. KEY FACTS ABOUT ZOONOSIS
 A zoonosis is any disease or infection
that is naturally transmissible from
vertebrate animals to humans
 There are over 200 known types of
zoonoses
 Zoonoses comprise a large percentage of
new and existing diseases in humans
 Some zoonoses, such as rabies, are 100%
preventable through vaccination and
other methods

12. HISTORY ABOUT ZOONOSIS

13. WHO IS AT RISK?
 Zoonotic pathogens can spread to humans through any contact
point with domestic, agricultural or wild animals. Markets selling
the meat or by-products of wild animals are particularly high risk
due to the large number of new or undocumented pathogens
known to exist in some wild animal populations.
 Agricultural workers in areas with a high use of antibiotics for
farm animals may be at increased risk of pathogens resistant to
current antimicrobial drugs.
 People living adjacent to wilderness areas or in semi-urban areas
with higher numbers of wild animals are at risk of disease from
animals such as rats, foxes or raccoons.
 Urbanization and the destruction of natural habitats increase the
risk of zoonotic diseases by increasing contact between humans
and wild animals.

27. LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS
 Diagnosis may be made by postmortem by
the demonstration of negri bodies in the
brain. Isolation of virus by intracerebral
inoculation of mice can be attempted from
the brain, CSF, saliva and urine.
 If facilities are available , then detection of
rabies virus RNA by reverse transcription
PCR is a very sensitive method.

28. TREATMENT ABOUT ZOONOSIS

30. PREVENTION AND CONTROL

31. NURSING MANAGEMENT

32. PREVENTION AND CONTROL
 1) Control of cases
 (a) Early diagnosis- it is essential that plague-
suspected humans and rodents be examined
bacteriologically to confirm the presence of plague.
 (b) Notification- If a human or rodent case is
diagnosed, health authorities must be notified
promptly.
 (c) Isolation- all patients with pneumonic plague
should be isolated.
 (d) Treatment- must be started without waiting for
confirmation of the diagnosis.

33. CONTINUED
 2) Control of fleas The most effective method
to break the chain of transmission
(rodent,flea man) is the destruction of rat
fleas by the proper application of an effective
insecticide. 3) Control of rodents Continuous
mass destruction of rodents is an important
plague-preventive measure

34. CONTINUED
 4) Vaccination
5) Chemoprophylaxis Chemoprophylaxis is a
valuable preventive measure, highly
recommended. It should be offered to all
plague contacts, medical, nursing, and public
health personnel exposed to the risk of
infection.
The drug of choice is tetracycline. For adults,
the dose is 500 mg 6 hourly for 5 days.

38. SUMMARY

39. CONCLUSION
 Zoonotic diseases are a scary reality, but there are things that we
can do to protect ourselves from them. For our animals,
vaccinations are the first line of defence against disease, also,
keep an eye on where your animal goes, and what they come in
contact with.
 For humans, be sure to always wash your hands after handling
animals, and before eating or drinking. Also, be aware of animals
around that may bite or scratch you.
 The world health organization estimates that 61% of all human
diseases are zoonotic in origin.
 About 75% of the new diseases discovered in last decade are
zoonotic. Therefore, it is important to have a thorough
knowledge about the common zoonotic diseases, their global
morbidity estimates, common modes of transmission to humans,
clinical and laboratory diagnosis as well as preventive measures.
