Researchers develop a "zoonotic web" model to analyze complex transmission chains of zoonotic diseases affecting 2bn people.
Researchers from Complexity Science Hub & University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna have studied complex zoonotic transmission chains, affecting 2bn people worldwide. They introduce a "zoonotic web," a network representation of zoonotic agents, hosts, vectors, food sources, and environment. Zoonotic diseases, transmitted between animals and humans, are a significant public health concern, requiring a holistic approach to understanding and managing risks.
