Though reports of human clinical cases were limited, several serological studies provided considerable evidence of zoonotic transmission of vector-borne pathogens in humans. However, the disease burden in humans attributable to vector-borne zoonotic infections could not be ascertained from the available reports and this precludes the formulation of national policies that could help in the control and mitigation of the impact of these diseases in Zambia. Therefore, there is an urgent need to scale-up \u201cOne Health\u201d research in emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases to enable the country to prepare for future epidemics, including pandemics.<\/jats:p>\n
