Policies to prevent zoonotic spillover: a systematic scoping review of evaluative evidence

202317 citationsOpen accessUniversité de Kinshasa (UNIKIN)

Abstract

This review outlines the state of the evaluative evidence around policies to prevent zoonotic spillover in order to guide policy decision-making and focus research efforts. Since we found that most of the existing policy evaluations target 'downstream' determinants, additional research could focus on evaluating policies targeting 'upstream' determinants of zoonotic spillover, such as land use change, and policies impacting infection intensity and pathogen shedding in animal populations, such as those targeting animal welfare.
