Those infectious diseases that have increased in the past two decades or that threaten to emerge are considered emerging infectious diseases. Many of these diseases are acquired through contact with plants, insects and animals. "One health" acknowledges the interconnectedness of environment, plant, animal and human health. The introduction to this issue of Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology gives the definition of emerging and reemerging infectious diseases, explores the concept of "One Health", explains the evolution of testing for infectious agents as it relates to emerging infections, and considers the difficulties in predicting which and where the next emerging infection will occur.
在过去二十年中增加或有可能出现的传染病被认为是新发传染病。其中许多疾病是通过与植物、昆虫和动物接触而获得的。“同一健康”承认环境、植物、动物和人类健康的相互联系。本期《诊断病理学研讨会》介绍了新发和再现传染病的定义，探讨了“同一健康”的概念，解释了与新发感染相关的传染病检测方法的演变，并考虑了预测下一次新发感染将发生在何处和何处的困难。
