    Snippet: This review is a first attempt to summarise what is currently known regarding the nature of livestock-human interactions in the transmission of infectious diseases between livestock and humans. We performed a systematic procedure to identify current literature applying predefined criteria regarding livestock-associated zoonoses and tried to distinguish contact patterns between livestock and humans leading up to this zoonosis event.

    Document: This review is a first attempt to summarise what is currently known regarding the nature of livestock-human interactions in the transmission of infectious diseases between livestock and humans. We performed a systematic procedure to identify current literature applying predefined criteria regarding livestock-associated zoonoses and tried to distinguish contact patterns between livestock and humans leading up to this zoonosis event. Zoonotic events can be reported in three ways. First, an outbreak is noticed in animals, followed by cases in humans [101] . Second, a cluster of human zoonosis cases appears, after which possible animal sources are identified [64, 102] . The third way is retrospective, comparing blood samples from animal-exposed and non-exposed people for infectious disease markers [54] , these are mainly cross-sectional studies, which may be subject to selection bias.
