On July 6, World Zoonoses Day is celebrated every year to observe the special day when the first vaccination came to be developed to fight Zoonoses.
French Chemist and Microbiologist Louis Pasteur successfully developed the first vaccination against Rabies virus on July 6, 1885.
On World Zoonoses Day 2023, the first vaccination against the diseases is celebrated and people are urged to be more aware about the diseases.
This day serves as a crucial reminder of the interconnectedness between humans and animals and the potential risks of zoonotic diseases like influenza, Ebola and West Nile virus.
Rabis virus is a Zoonotic disease and is known to spread through species. Be it vector-borne or food-borne, Zoonotic diseases are known to spread rapidly among animals and humans.
Caused by viruses, parasites, bacteria and fungi, these diseases can lead to serious complications in both humans and animals, sometimes even resulting in death.
