EngagementModerate engagement

Several discussions reference specific diseases and the implications for public health policy, indicating a moderate level of engagement.

ImpactNeutral impact

While the discussion recognizes the significance of the research, there is limited debate about its immediate influence on current practices or policies.

Abstract in brief

Most emerging infectious diseases are zoonoses, which affect both humans and animals, creating a dual health burden, and many of these are neglected.
A systematic review found that these diseases cause at least 21 million DALYs annually, with the highest burden from nontyphoidal salmonellosis, but there are gaps in data for several important NZDs like West Nile, Marburg, and Lassa fever.
The current understanding of the global burden of neglected zoonotic diseases is scattered, with missing estimates for key diseases, highlighting the need for more comprehensive and consistent data to guide public health actions.
