Abstract
Covid-19 made us realize the magnitude of one health and how essential is it to dwell deep into connecting links between animal borne infections that appear of lesser importance to humans. Three quarters of emerging human pathogens are zoonotic and the probability of viral and protozoan disease to emerge as major pathogens is more than other infectious agents. The major contributors to the global burden of parasitic zoonoses are toxoplasmosis, food borne trematode infections, cysticercosis, echinococcosis, leishmaniosis and zoonotic schistosomosis. However, giardiosis, trichenellosis, angiostrongylosis are emerging as upcoming challenges. The foremost possibilities for skewed research on particular parasites is the proportion of populations being affected by the disease mainly driven by the socio economic status/research funding agencies and other being the elusive lifestyle of parasite/ difficult to study/ rarity. As the world is turning into a global village with ease of transportation, travel and trading, the emerging neglected parasites maysoon traverse the socio economic or geographical barriers. It is therefore imperative to include them in international debate, divulge into their epidemiology and transmission to ensure effective monitoring and control.
