Inventario de las zoonosis felinas y caninas que representan riesgo de salud pública en la Localidad de La Candelaria

Abstract

This monograph aims to review the main zoonotic diseases, with emphasis on their etiology, clinical manifestations and their prevention in the La Candelaria locality 17, which have occurred with a higher incidence in recent years due to factors such as ignorance of these in the community, inadequate pet ownership, health and sanitation, street animals, lack of management by the entities in charge of public health. Primary information was collected from the statistics of reports of diseases of zoonotic origin compiled by the District Secretary of Health. Additionally, virtual surveys were applied, directed both for the population that owns canines and felines, as well as for local veterinarians.
