Background:

Recent years show a rise in emergent disease episodes, predominantly involving zoonotic or species-jumping pathogens.
Predicting the emergence and impact of novel zoonotic pathogens remains challenging, highlighting the need for immediate investigation upon detection.

Purpose of the Study:

To emphasize the critical importance of investigating new zoonotic disease emergence at its earliest stages.
To outline the discovery-to-control continuum for novel zoonotic diseases, encompassing recognition, scientific discovery, risk assessment, and risk management.

Main Methods:

The study conceptualizes zoonotic disease investigation along a continuum from initial recognition to control.
It highlights the necessity of integrating hard sciences (discovery), epidemiologic sciences (risk assessment), and risk management activities.

Main Results:

Current zoonotic disease control efforts are jeopardized by inadequate investigative infrastructure and funding.
Zoonotic diseases require distinct prevention and control strategies, differing from traditional approaches.

Conclusions:

Effective prevention and control of zoonotic diseases necessitate unique strategies rooted in fundamental research.
Rebuilding a dedicated professional workforce with a comprehensive understanding of multiple medical and biological sciences is essential for future preparedness.
