Orthozoonoses are diseases that are transmitted from animals to humans, specifically through direct contact or through vectors that carry pathogens between species. These diseases typically involve well-defined hosts and a specific mode of transmission, distinguishing them from other zoonotic diseases that may have more complex or undefined pathways. Examples include rabies and certain types of plague. Understanding orthozoonoses is crucial for managing public health risks associated with animal interactions.
