Transmission Dynamics of Zoonotic Pathogens from Swine to Human Populations: A Study of the Situation in Southeast Asia
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Zoonotic pathogens harboured by swine in Southeast Asia present a complex and pressing public health challenge. These pathogens exhibit diverse mechanisms of transmission, encompassing direct contact, consumption of contaminated products, and environmental exposure. The impact of swine-associated zoonotic pathogens on human health is profound, manifesting in a spectrum of clinical consequences and varying severity of illnesses. This comprehensive review explores the transmission dynamics of zoonotic pathogens from swine to human populations, focusing on the unique context of Southeast Asia. A multitude of zoonotic microorganisms emerge as critical players in this transmission nexus, based on the study of documents and academic works, reports from government sources, and research studies from relevant databases, the related academic journals that have been published within the last 5 years. As a result, zoonotic diseases from swine pose a significant threat to human health. Transmission dynamics are complex, involving various mechanisms, with impacts ranging from mild to severe illnesses. Risk factors include close contact with pigs, poor hygiene, and undercooked pork consumption. Treatment challenges linked to swine exposure are a concern. Epidemiological patterns vary based on pathogen species and geographical location. Control strategies involve the One Health approach, emphasizing collaboration for prevention. Continued research and surveillance are crucial for understanding transmission dynamics and developing effective prevention strategies against zoonotic pathogens associated with swine.
