Wakeley Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency, Surrey, United Kingdom Lin-Fa Wang CSIRO Australian Animal Health Laboratory, Geelong, Australia; Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School, Singapore Foreword A definition of an emerging disease is one that has newly appeared in a popula- tion or that has been known for some time but is rapidly increasing in incidence or geographic range. These events are commonly described as outbreaks and they impact on human populations through disease and death with great cost to human health and the economy. A report commissioned by The World Bank has calculated that six disease outbreaks alone between 1997 and 2009 resulted in economic losses of US$80 billion.1 Five of these disease outbreaks were caused by viruses (Nipah virus, West Nile virus, SARS coronavirus, High Pathogenic Avian Influenza and Rift Valley fever virus), of which three are considered in this book. All of these viruses originated in animal reservoirs and were spread through complex interactions with particular animal species. The purpose of this book is to explore these interactions with an underlying message that a One Health approach to disease emergence is needed uniting a range of disciplines to detect emerging viruses and implement effective control measures before they impact on human populations. On embarking on the preparation of this book, each contributor was asked to consider the role of animals in the emergence of a particular virus. The choice of viruses selected for inclusion in this book is not significant other than to illus- trate the role of animals in the processes that lead to emergence. It is certainly not a complete or exhaustive list of the range of emerging viruses that challenge human health in the 21st century. However, I think that they do reflect many of the different interactions and interfaces between humans, animals and viruses. Likewise, the order of the chapters in this book has no particular significance as each describes the emergence of a particular virus, and while there will be common themes that will be discussed in the final chapter, each also has unique features. Each chapter has been written by authors experienced in the study of that virus and is a stand-alone piece. An introductory chapter provides an over- view of many aspects of disease emergence, and includes the anthropogenic fac- tors that drive disease emergence. While the majority of the viruses discussed in this book are clearly defined as zoonotic, the first two examples have been included that have a greater impact on livestock and companion animals. These are foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) virus and canine parvovirus type-2 (CPV-2) 1. People, Pathogens and Our Planet. Report commissioned by The World Bank. Report Number 69145-GLB. http://un-influenza.org/files/PeoplePathogensandOur%20Planet.pdf xv xvi Foreword respectively. Current knowledge suggests that these viruses do not cause sig- nificant disease in humans. FMD has been included because it has the capacity to suddenly emerge and is a constant challenge to those areas that are free of disease. Also it is now recognized as one of the major threats to food supplies in the developing world and in turn is a major driver of poverty. Control of this disease would make a real difference to the lives of millions of subsistence farmers throughout Africa and Asia. The inclusion of CPV-2 is merited by the rapid global spread observed in the
