    Zoonosis are diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans, including bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections. The World Health Organization defines emerging zoonosis as previously known or new diseases increasing in incidence, or expanding their affected areas, hosts, or vectors. A document on zoonosis in Malaysia lists bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases known to transmit between animals and humans in that region.
