Zoonoses can be transmitted to humans.
Zoonoses are diseases that are naturally transmitted between humans and animals kept by humans. Zoonotic diseases include rabies, anthrax, tuberculosis, brucellosis, salmonellosis, psittacosis, leptospirosis, avian influenza flu, and so on. The main ways of transmission include saliva transmission, fecal transmission, airborne transmission and so on.
1. Saliva transmission: when domestic animals bite a person, the virus can enter the body with saliva and cause the disease.
2. Fecal transmission: The pathogens of tuberculosis, brucellosis and other diseases can spread with fecal contamination of drinking water, food or with objects. Eggs of most parasites are also found in feces and can be transmitted to humans.
3. Airborne transmission: sick animals and poultry in sneezing, sneezing and coughing, the pathogen will be sprayed out, and the formation of infectious droplets in the air, thereby infecting people.
In addition to the above pathway can also be transmitted through contact and other means. Therefore, people who have frequent contact with livestock and poultry should pay attention to personal protection to avoid getting sick. People who keep pets should regularly immunize their pets against certain diseases. When consuming milk, meat and eggs of domestic animals, they should be heated and cooked.
