Biology:Human-to-primate transmission

From HandWiki

Human-to-primate transmission (HPT) is a seldom-remarked epidemiologic vector. It is by definition a cross-species transmission vector.

Unsupervised HPT

In 1998, The Zoonotic Importance of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis: Transmission From Human to Monkey was noticed.[1]

In 2001, scientists noticed that antibodies peculiar to humans were found in macaque monkeys, both wild and domesticated. Of the panel of human viruses studied, measles, influenza A, and parainfluenza 1, 2 and 3 were found in some of the studied animals.[2]

In 2006, scientists noticed HPT of measles, rubella, and parainfluenza in the case of performing monkeys, who are "a common phenomena in Asia".[3]

In 2015 and again in 2016, scientists found that HPT likely had occurred in the case of Staphylococcus aureus.[4][5]

In 2018, scientists speculated that HPT was likely to have occurred in the case of human malaria parasites.[6]

Also in 2018, scientists speculated that an outbreak of tuberculosis among a closed breeding colony of Aotus monkeys was likely due to continuing intermittent HPT exposure.[7]
