Zoonoses : are infections which are naturally transmitted between vertebrate animals and people.
The term zoonosis'Derived from the Greek
ZOON (animals) and NOSES (diseases)
People, animals, birds, arthropods and the inanimate environment are all involved in cycles of zoonotic infection
Arthropods form a major group of disease vectors with mosquitoes, flies, sand flies, lice, fleas, ticks and mites transmitting a huge number of diseases.
Many such vectors are haematophagous, which feed on blood at some or all stages of their lives.
Important Zoonotic disease and its prevention and control By: Dr.Manoj karkimanojj123
Zoonosis are those disease and infection which are naturally transmitted between animals and human. (WHO & FAO, 1959).
Zoonosis word derived from Greek word “ZOO” means Animals and “NOSES” means Disease.
One Health is not a new concept, but it has become more important in recent years because many factors have changed the interaction among human, animals and the environment. These changes have caused the emergence and re-emergence of many disease.
Brucellosis: Epidemiology and Control in indiaBhoj Raj Singh
Brucellosis is an important endemic infectious disease in animals in India. In India brucellosis was first recognized in 1942 by Polding. It causes economic loss to the tune of nearly Rs. 350 million/year. Bovine brucellosis is caused by the bacterium Brucella abortus. In countries where cattles are kept in close association with sheep and goat it can also be caused by B. melitensis. Occasionally B. suis may also cause disease in mammary gland of cattle but it has not been reported to cause abortion and usually does not spread to other animals. Principal manifestations of animal brucellosis are reproductive failure, i.e., abortion, still births and birth of unthrifty offspring in females, and orchitis and epididymitis in males. Genus Brucella has six recognized species on the basis of host specificity viz. B. abortus, B. melitensis, B. ovis, B. suis, B. canis and B. neotome, infecting cattle, goats and sheep, sheep, pig, dog and rats, respectively. All Brucella species may also infect wildlife species. Classical Brucella species have been isolated from a great variety of wildlife species such as bison, elk, feral swine, wild boar, fox, hare, African buffalo, reindeer, and caribou. Infection in wildlife can hinder eradication efforts in cattle.
The classical species viz., B. abortus, B. melitensis, and B. suis have been identified as category B bioterrorism agents (Rotz et al. 2002, CDC 2005) because they are zoonotic and capable of causing considerable morbidity with low mortality if used in a mass event.
A parasitic disease, also known as parasitosis, is an infectious disease caused or transmitted by a parasite. Many parasites do not cause diseases. Parasitic diseases can affect practically all living organisms, including plants and mammals. The study of parasitic diseases is called parasitology.

A parasitic disease, also known as parasitosis, is an infectious disease caused or transmitted by a parasite. Many parasites do not cause diseases. Parasitic diseases can affect practically all living organisms, including plants and mammals. The study of parasitic diseases is called parasitology.
Toxoplasmosis is considered one of the neglected parasitic infections of the United States, a group of five parasitic diseases that have been targeted by CDC for public health action.Q fever is a disease caused by the bacteria Coxiella burnetii. This bacteria naturally infects some animals, such as goats, sheep, and cattle. C. burnetii bacteria are found in the birth products (i.e. placenta, amniotic fluid), urine, feces, and milk of infected animals.
Tick-borne parasitic infections are serious problem in the world as the population of ticks is increasing with people building homes in areas where ticks and their host live. Ticks are second to mosquitoes as an excellent vector for vector-borne diseases. There are only two known tick-borne parasitic infections: Babesiosis and Theileriosis. Babesiosis is due to the tick-borne parasites of the Babesia protozoa genus while Theileriosis is caused by Theilerias species which are obligate protozoan parasites. They are both transmitted by the Ixodid ticks. The symptoms of the infection includes lacrimation, nasal discharge, muscle pains etc. Tick-borne parasitic diseases can be prevented by avoiding places where ticks often live and also by using insect repellents.
World Zoonoses Day is marked annually on 6 July to commemorate the first vaccination administered against a zoonotic disease like influenza, ebola and West Nile virus

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. INTRODUCTION
Disease and infections which
are naturally transmitted
between vertebrates animals
and humans-WHO 1959
Zoonoses: drived from the
Greek words
Zoon-Animal & Noson-
disease
Zoonoses was coined and
first used by Rudolf Virchow
(1880) who defined it for
communicable diseases
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolf_Virchow
Rudolf Ludwig Carl Virchow
3. Animals can carry harmful germs, such as
bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. These are
then shared with humans and cause illness.
Zoonotic diseases are spread worldwide.
The World Health Organization (WHO)
estimates that
61% of all human diseases are zoonotic in origin
75% of new diseases discovered in the last decade
are also zoonotic.
9. RABIES
Lyssavirus
Infects all mammals, but main reservoirs
are wild and domestic canines, cats,
skunks, raccoons, and bats.
Transmission:
bite of rabid animal, virus saliva on skin
wound or mucous membranes
Corneal transplant
Airborne transmission
In India, dogs are the main vectors,
accounting for 95 % of the reported cases
WHO 50,000 human deaths are reported
worldwide every year, with 60 % of these
cases being reported from India.

10. SYMPTOMS
1 to 3 months after the
virus enters the body ,
the virus move toward
the brain. They include:
Pain or tingling at the
bite site
Fever
Headache
Nausea and vomiting
Depression
As virus begins to multiply
in spinal cord and brain,
neurological symptoms that
include:
Anxiety
Confusion
Excessive saliva production
High level of excitement
Insomnia
Paralysis of lower legs
Hydrophobia
11. DIAGNOSIS
The diagnosis from the
affected brain.
Diagnosis methods for
detection
Direct florescent
antibody
Mouse inoculation
technique
Tissue culture
Clinical diagnosis three are
stages;
Prodromal
Excitement (furious)
Paralytic (dumb).
The very first clinical
symptom is neuropathic pain .
Samples of saliva, serum, and
skin biopsies of hair follicles
at the nape of the neck
In Animals In Human
12. PREVENTION
Keep your pet away from other stray dogs.
Vaccination
Maintain distance with wild animals.
Prevent bats from living places
Wildlife rabies control programs including vaccination
(trap/vaccinate/release or delivery of oral vaccines).
13. TREATMENT
Post-exposure prophylaxis
Wash wound and scratches.
One dose rabies immune
globulin and five doses
rabies vaccine
Rabies immune globulin
contains antibodies from
blood donors who were
given rabies vaccine. The
rabies vaccine works by
stimulating a person’s
immune system to produce
antibodies that neutralize
the virus.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis
The people who are
considered as high risk
group need pre-exposure
prophylaxis. These groups
includes.
Veterinarian
Animal handlers
Laboratory workers
15. LYME’S DISEASE
Lyme disease - transmitted through the bite of
a tick infected with a bacterium called Borrelia
burgdorferi.
In 1981, Willy Burgdorfer identified the disease
causing bacterium in the intestinal tract of a tick.
The bacterium was named after him: Borrelia
burgdorferi
Ticks get the bacterium by biting infected
animals.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyme_disease
16. SYMPTOMS(EARLY & LATE
STAGE)
Early localised Lyme
disease Known as
erythema migrans (EM)
Ringshaped,
Red-coloured,
Spreading skin rash (bulls-
eye rash)
It spread to joints or to the
nervous system.
Late-stage Lyme disease
acrodermatitis chronica
atrophicans (ACA)
Dark red or purple skin.
Neuroborreliosis and Lyme
carditis, headaches,
muscular pain and fatigue.
18. DIAGNOSES
Doctors diagnose Lyme disease based on
symptoms and a history of tick exposure.
Two-step blood tests are helpful
EIA
Western blot test
Few weeks of infection, the test may be negative,
as antibodies take a few weeks to develop.
19. PREVENTION
Tick-Safe Landscaping techniques should be for
Homes
Parks
Fields
Recreational areas
Drier environments.
Removing leaf litter
Clearing tall grass and brush around houses
Wooded area
The use of pesticides to control tick populations is another option.
Wear appropriate clothing
Long-sleeved shirt
Pants, socks
Removing plants that attract deer
Lists of deer-resistant plantings are available from garden centers,
nurseries, or local extension agents.
21. TOXOPLASMA GONDII
(TOXOPLASMOSIS)
Toxoplasmosis , caused by Toxoplasma gondii
Discovered by 1908 by Nicolle and Manceaux, in Tunis, on a Gundi
(Ctenodoactylus gundi).
It 1939 that Wolf, Cowen and Paige were to conclude that toxoplasma
gondii had an effect on humans.
Found in most warm blooded animals of any age, sex or species. Birds,
sheep, goat, cattle, pigs etc cats are the most common
Symptoms, including swollen lymph node ,blurred vision, muscle pains,
Seizures, Lung problems that may resemble tuberculosis . pregnant women
or animals causing abortions .
30 % of human population worldwide is chronically infected with T.
Gondii
23. TRANSMISSION
Transmission occur in three ways
(a) Fecal-oral
(b) Eating contaminated food
(c) Transplacental
The parasite can only produce oocytes when
infecting a cat. The organism then multiplies in
the wall of intestine and produces oocysts during
the intraintestinal infection cycle
25. DIAGNOSIS
Microscopic diagnosis
Detection of T. gondii in
fecal, water,
environmental and tissue
samples has examine by
microscopes.
In light microscopy
Giemsa and Haematoxylin
and Eosin (HE) staining.
Serological assays
T. gondii infection usually
shows non-specific clinical
symptoms in most
individuals, whose
diagnosis mainly relies on
serological tests. A variety
of serological tests, such as
Dye test (DT)
Modified agglutination
test (MAT)
Enzyme-linked
immunosorbent assays
(ELISA)
Immunosorbent
agglutination assay
(ISAGA)
26. PREVENTION
Wear gloves when handling soil.
Wash hands with soap and water after outdoor activities
Wash cutting boards, sinks, knives and other utensils
that touched the raw meat.
Keep cats indoors and feed them dry or canned food
rather than allowing them to have access to wild birds
and rodents
Clean litter box everyday
27. TREATMENT
Clinical cases are treated with antibiotics such as:
Clindamycin,
Azithromycin
Pyrimethamine
antibiotics can suppress actively dividing
parasites, they cannot destroy tissue cysts and are
unlikely to completely eliminate T. gondii from the
body.
29. HISTOPLASMOSIS
Histoplasmosis caused by the fungus Histoplasma capsulatum
“Darling’s disease” a tribute to its founder , stephen Darling in 1950.
The fungus lives in the environment, particularly in soil that contains large
amounts of bird or bat droppings.
We get sick when we breathe in spores that the fungus produces. These
spores are settle in lungs
Those who have weakened immune system the infection can became serve,
especially if it spread from the lungs to the other organ.
32. DIAGNOSES
There are a series of tests which can be done to
determine the presence of infection as well as to show
the presence of H. capsulatum
Bronchoscopy,
Chest x-rays and
Chest CT scans
Testing for the presence of histoplasmosis can be done
through:
Biopsies of the skin,
Lungs,
Liver
Bone marrow,
Blood
Urine tests to detect foreign proteins and
33. PREVENTION
You can reduce your risk of infection by avoiding high-risk
areas. These include:
Construction sites
Renovated buildings
Caves
Pigeon or chicken coops
If you can’t avoid high-risk areas, there are steps as:
Spray sites with water before working or digging in them.
Wear a respirator mask when there is a high risk of
exposure to spores.
34. TREATMENT
If you have trouble breathing or are infected for longer than
one month, treatment may be necessary. You will likely be
given an oral antifungal medication. The most commonly
used drugs are:
Ketoconazole
Amphotericin B
Itraconazole
35. 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.
