Zoonoses in India
J Commun Dis.
1990 Dec.
Abstract
Intimate and prolong contact between man and animal facilitates the transmission of various communicable diseases between them. These diseases (zoonoses) are more prevalent in developing countries especially in the rural areas. These diseases virtually stunt the economic and social growth also. Lack of authentic data and awareness regarding the occurrence of these diseases and their true impact on public health have acted as major obstacles in instituting adequate and effective control measures. The information available regarding the current status of few important zoonoses in India is being presented in this paper.
