"multi-emergence') of {E}bola virus in places where they are in contact with {C}hiropters, which could be animal reservoirs of these viruses. {H}uman epidemics often follow these major outbreaks. {S}imian immunodeficiency viruses ({SIV}s) have an ancient history of coevolution and many interspecific exchanges with their natural hosts. {C}himpanzee and gorilla {SIV}s have crossed the species barrier at different times and places, leading to the emergence of {HIV}-1 and {HIV}-2. {O}ther retroviruses, such as the {S}imian {T}-{L}ymphotropic {V}iruses and {F}oamiviruses, have also a unique ancient or recent history of crossing the species barrier. {T}he identification of gorilla {P}lasmodium parasites that are genetically close to {P}. falciparum suggests that gorillas were the source of the deadly human {P}. falciparum. {N}onhuman plasmodium species that can infect humans represent an underestimated risk.}, keywords = {{HUMAN} {MALARIA} {PARASITE} ; {PLASMODIUM}-{FALCIPARUM} ; {EBOLA}-{VIRUS} ; {NONHUMAN}-{PRIMATES} ; {ENDOGENOUS} {LENTIVIRUS} ; {INFECTIOUS}-{DISEASES} {ORIGIN} ; {HEALTH} ; {TRANSMISSION} ; {CHIMPANZEES}}, booktitle = {{O}ne {H}ealth : the human-animal-environment interfaces in emerging infectious diseases : the concept and examples of a {O}ne {H}ealth approach}, volume = {365}, numero = {}, pages = {337--353}, address = {{B}erlin ({DEU}) ; {H}eidelberg}, publisher = {{S}pringer}, series = {{C}urrent {T}opics in {M}icrobiology and {I}mmunology}, year = {2013}, DOI = {10.1007/82_2012_304}, ISBN = {978-3-642-36888-2}, ISSN = {978-3-642-36889-9}, URL = {https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/{PAR}00011487}, }
