Rabies - Rabies is a fatal virus that is transmitted to humans through the saliva of infected animals. The rabies virus is often spread through bites. Bats, coyotes, foxes, raccoons, and skunks are the animals most likely to spread rabies in the United States.
Salmonellosis - Salmonella causes salmonellosis, a bacterial illness. The most frequent symptoms are an acute onset of fever, stomach pain, diarrhoea, nausea, and vomiting.
Methods that can stop its spread
Covid-19
(how to stop it's spread)
Maintain a safe distance from others (at least 1 metre) to prevent the transmission of COVID-19, even if they don't appear to be sick.
When you're out in public, especially inside or when physical separation isn't possible, wear a mask.
Closed spaces should be avoided in favour of open, well-ventilated ones. If you're indoors, open a window.
Hands should be washed frequently. Use soap and water or an alcohol-based hand rub to clean your hands.
When it's your turn, get vaccinated. Vaccination should be done according to local recommendations.
When you cough or sneeze, cover your nose and mouth with your bent elbow or a tissue.
If you're sick, stay at home.
Zoonies (how to stop it's spread)
Hands should be washed before and after handling animals.
In the animal housing areas, do not eat or drink.
When working with animals, put on coveralls, agricultural attire, or laboratory coats.
Unless you're wearing gloves, avoid handling ill or injured animals.
