  • Fish and aquatic-derived zoonotic diseases are a significant issue in aquaculture and fisheries, posing risks to both fish health and human populations due to the rise in global trade and environmental contamination.
  • Key causes of these diseases include bacteria, parasites (like cestodes and nematodes), viruses, and fungi, with different groups having distinct characteristics that impact transmission to humans.
  • Properly cooking and processing fish can significantly reduce the risk of zoonotic disease transmission, and regular monitoring of these pathogens in fish populations is crucial for control and prevention efforts.
