إن دواء المشوكات البشري هو مرض طفيلي تتسبب به شريطيات من جنس الشريطيات المشوكة.
وأهم شكلين لهذا المرض لدى الإنسان هما داء المشوكات الكيسي ( داء التكيس ...لديداني) وداء المشوكات السنخي.
ويصاب الإنسان بالعدوى عبر ابتلاع بيوض الطفيليات في الأغذية، أو المياه، أو التربة الملوثة، أو من خلال الاحتكاك المباشر مع الحيوانات المضيفة.
وغالباً ما يكون علاج داء المشوكات مكلفاً ومعقداً، وقد يتطلب جراحة واسعة و/أو علاجاً دوائياً مطولا.
وتشمل برامج الوقاية إخضاع الكلاب لتدابير طرد الديدان، والنهوض بمعاينة الأغذية ونظافة المسالخ؛ ويجري حالياً تقييم تطعيم الحملان كتدخل إضافي.
وهناك أكثر من مليون مصاب بداء المشوكات في أي وقت من الأوقات.
ومرض داء المشوكات البشري هو مرض حيواني المصدر (أي ينتقل إلى الإنسان من الحيوان) تتسبب به طفيليات هي شريطيات من جنس المشوكات. ويظهر داء المشوكات في أربعة أشكال:

L’échinococcose humaine est une zoonose (maladie transmise à l’homme par l’animal) causée par des parasites, à savoir des ténias du genre Echinococcus. L’échinococcose se présente sous 4 formes :
Leptospirosis is an infectious disease caused by pathogenic organisms belonging to the genus Leptospira, that are transmitted directly or indirectly from animals to humans. Leptospirosis is a major direct zoonosis. Humanto-human transmission occurs only very rarely.
Humans can become infected with T. saginata or T. asiatica when they consume infected beef meat or pig liver tissue, respectively, which has not been adequately cooked, but taeniasis due to T. saginata or T. asiatica has no major impact on human health. Therefore, this fact sheet refers to the trans...mission and health impacts of T. solium only.

Rabies is a devastating and societally important zoonotic disease, which is transmitted principally to humans through the bite of infected dogs. This acute, progressive viral encephalitis has the highest case fatality of any infectious disease and kills tens of thousands of people annually, with chi...ldren and impoverished communities being affected disproportionately.

Rabies is a fatal zoonotic disease most often transmitted to people via bites from infected dogs. This course provides a general introduction to rabies, and the One Health approach currently taken to prevent it. It consists of seven video-lectures, demonstration videos, and lessons learnt from peopl...e who work at the frontline of rabies elimination programmes around the world. It targets both a general audience and those who would like to learn more about rabies and the pathway to eliminating this disease – like prospective and current public health and animal health practitioners in rabies endemic countries.

Yaws forms part of a group of chronic bacterial infections commonly known as the endemic treponematoses. These diseases are caused by spiral bacteria of the genus Treponema, which also includes endemic syphilis (bejel) and pinta. Yaws is the most common of these three infections.
Rabies is a virus (Lyssavirus) that infects cells in the central nervous
system, causing disease in the brain and, ultimately, death. Any animal
with rabies has the ability to transmit the disease to humans or other
animals.
There is no cure for rabies, but it is 100 percent preventable through

Human scabies is caused by an infestation of the skin by the human itch mite (Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis). The microscopic scabies mite burrows into the upper layer of the skin where it lives and lays its eggs.
Scabies is found worldwide and affects people of all races and social classes. Scabi...es can spread rapidly under crowded conditions where close body and skin contact is frequent. Institutions such as nursing homes, extended-care facilities and prisons are often sites of scabies outbreaks. Child care facilities also are a common site of scabies infestations.

Scabies is a contagious skin condition caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei which burrows into the skin and causes severe itching. Scabies is transmitted by direct skin-to-skin contact or indirectly by contact with contaminated material (fomites). This condition is often challenging to diagnose as m...any patients may have only subtle symptoms. However, other patients may present with the classic history of exposure, severe pruritis that is worse at night, and reference to other individuals with similar symptoms. This activity reviews the evaluation and treatment of scabies and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in managing patients with this condition.
