Description

Vector-Borne Viral Zoonotic Diseases and One Health is a modern academic book that looks at viral diseases passed from animals to humans through tiny creatures like mosquitoes, ticks, sandflies, and others. It explains these diseases using the One Health idea, which focuses on how the health of people, animals, these tiny creatures, and the environment are all connected. As people and animals move more, the climate changes, cities grow, and the environment changes, new chances are appearing for these diseases to start and spread. To understand these diseases, it's important for a group of experts to work together, including vets, doctors, disease specialists, scientists who study microbes, those who study insects, environmental experts, public health workers, and people who make health policies. A main idea of the book is that vector-borne zoonotic diseases can't be controlled well by just looking at human health. These diseases often happen because of how pathogens, vectors, wildlife, animals, humans, and the environment all connect and interact. The One Health approach brings all these parts together to help find diseases early, stop them from spreading, and work together to respond effectively.
