Which of the following is NOT an example of an epizootic?: (A) Malaria, (B) Brucellosis, (C) Anthrax, (D) Rabies
Answer is A. EPIZOOTIC: It is an epidemic of disease in an animal population (often with the implication that it may also affect human populations). Only a few zoonotic agents cause major epidemics. Examples are anthrax, brucellosis, rabies, influenza, Rift valley fever, Japanese encephalitis and equine encephalitis. Ref: Park 21st edition, page 89.
