The Acute and Communicable Disease Prevention Program gathers information that is voluntarily provided by veterinarians to track diseases that are transported by animals. This includes FELV and FIV, parovirus, various worms (heartworm, roundworm) and distemper, as well as diseases that are transmitted between animals and humans (zoonotic) such as rabies, giardia, cryptococcus, ringworm, leptospirosis and campylobacteriosis.
