Definition/Description[edit | edit source]
A zoonotic disease is any disease or infection that is naturally transmissible from vertebrate animals to humans. [1]
Classes of Zoonoses[edit | edit source]
1. Viral Zoonoses[edit | edit source]
Ehrlichiosis[edit | edit source]
the general name used to describe several bacterial diseases that affect animals and humans. Human ehrlichiosis is a disease caused by at least three different ehrlichial species in the United States: Ehrlichia chaffeensis, Ehrlichia ewingii, and a third Ehrlichia species provisionally called Ehrlichia muris-like (EML). Ehrlichiae are transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected tick. Symptoms usually occur within 1-2 weeks following a tick bite[2][3] and include fever, headache, fatigue, and muscle aches. Ehrlichios is is diagnosed based on symptoms, clinical presentation, and later confirmed with specialized laboratory tests. Treatment for adults and children of all ages is doxycycline.[2]
