Table 7. The five stages through which pathogens of animals evolve to cause diseases confined to humans. Virtually all animal-derived human pathogens arose from pathogens of other warm-blooded vertebrates, primarily mammals plus in two cases (influenza A and ultimately falciparum malaria) birds. Primates constitute only 0.5% of all vertebrate species but have contributed about 20% of our major human diseases. (Adapted from Ref. Citation62.)

Table 9. Viruses (n = 37) that are known or suspected of being transmissible (directly or indirectly) between humans but to date have been restricted to short transmission chains or self-limiting outbreaks (modified from Ref. Citation65).
