ROLE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE IN THE PREDICTION AND PREVENTION OF THE NEXT GLOBAL PANDEMIC

Аннотация

Accumulating evidence indicates that the spillover of viral pathogens from 
natural reservoirs into the human population may initiate a new global pandemic 
(Kache et al., 2021; Meadows et al., 2023; Plowright et al., 2024; Sparrer et al., 2023; 
Vora et al., 2022; Vora et al., 2023; Vora et al., 2024; Vora et al., 2021). Severe 
Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which caused the 
COVID-19 pandemic (Ralph et al., 2020), is an excellent example of the spillover of 
zoonotic betacoronavirus from wild animals into humans (Sparrer et al., 2023; 
Tugizov, 2021; Tugizov S, 2003a, b, c, 2020).
