Understanding the Classification of Zoonoses
Zoonoses, diseases that can be transmitted from animals to humans, are classified based on etiological agents, transmission cycle, and reservoir hosts. Etiological agents include bacteria, viruses, rickettsial, chlamydial, mycotic, and parasitic organisms. The transmission cycle categorizes zoonoses

Understanding Zoonotic Diseases and Prevention Strategies
Zoonotic diseases pose a risk as they can be transmitted from animals to humans under natural conditions. Awareness of transmission routes is crucial. Direct contact, ingestion, aerosol, and indirect transmission through fomites or vectors are common means of spreading these diseases. Animals may no
