Select the conditions below that are necessary for potential eradication of a disease. Select all that apply. Disease transmission must be zoonotic in nature. The disease must be found in human reservoirs only. Prevention should not be costly. Whole, live-cell vaccines must be used. The infectious disease must be preventable. The infectious disease must be curable.

Many zoonotic diseases are transmitted between animals by vector organisms. Discuss the interrelatedness of these two categories of infectious diseases (zoonotic and vector-borne); the environmental and ecological factors that impact the distribution of vector-borne diseases, the competitive advantage that pathogens can achieve through being vector-borne, and the impact carriage of zoonotic pathogens has on the health of the animal.
