Definition
- Infectious or communicable diseases of humans can be divided into those that are communicable only between humans and those that are communicable to humans by nonhuman vertebrate animals (those with backbones such as mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish, referred to in this entry simply as “animals”). The latter diseases are called zoonoses or zoonotic diseases. [Source: Encyclopedia of Epidemiology; Zoonotic Disease]
