The term "Zoonosis" was first used by Rudolf Virchow, a Pioneer in Cellular Pathology

Many Emerging and Re-Emerging Diseases are a Result of a Spillower from Animals to Humans
4
According to the CDC Website, there are Eight Priority Zoonoses in the United States.

Many Emerging Zoonoses from Wikillife are Spread from cither a Natural Reservoir or an Intermediate Host.
6
Four Stages are Necessary for Transmission and Maintenance of the Virus in the Reservoir Host.

Zoonoses and Public Health Safety Require Collaboration, Cooperation, and Education
Description:
Explore a comprehensive lecture on the mathematical modeling of viral zoonotic infectious diseases transmitted from wildlife to humans. Delve into the concept of zoonosis, its historical context, and the significance of emerging and re-emerging diseases resulting from animal-to-human spillover. Examine the four stages necessary for virus transmission and maintenance in reservoir hosts, and learn how Markov Chain models and Branching Process Theory are applied to estimate spillover probabilities. Discover the impact of periodic probabilities on spillover events and understand the importance of mathematical models in comprehending the complexities of wildlife zoonoses. Gain insights into the collaborative efforts required for addressing zoonoses and ensuring public health safety.
