Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Public Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Zoonotic diseases (zoonoses) transmit between animals and humans, posing significant public health risks.
  • These diseases are disproportionately prevalent in developing countries, especially rural areas, impacting socio-economic growth.
  • Inadequate data and low awareness hinder effective control strategies for zoonoses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present available information on the current status of important zoonotic diseases in India.
  • To highlight the public health impact and challenges in managing zoonoses within the Indian context.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature and data on zoonotic diseases in India.
  • Analysis of prevalence, impact, and control measure obstacles.

Main Results:

  • Zoonoses represent a significant, yet often underestimated, public health burden in India.
  • Key zoonotic diseases contribute to morbidity and mortality, affecting community well-being.
  • Lack of comprehensive surveillance and public awareness exacerbates the problem.

Conclusions:

  • Effective control of zoonoses in India requires improved data collection and increased public awareness.
  • Integrated strategies addressing both animal and human health are crucial for disease prevention and management.
  • Further research and investment are needed to mitigate the impact of zoonotic diseases on public health and economic development.
