Abstract

In this study, the burden of disease, costs, and animal losses caused by the seven most common zoonoses in humans and the two most common zoonoses in animals are calculated between 2016-2018 in Turkey. It aims to contribute to the literature by providing a holistic framework on the costs and burden of diseases of zoonoses in Turkey. The methodology of the study was based on the formula of ''Disease Burden of Zoonotic Diseases'' developed by the FAO. It was calculated under ''Burden of Early Mortality in Humans'', ''Burden of Morbidity in Humans'', "Financial Value of Lost Animals" and "Reduction in Production Capacity of Infected Animals". All cases which were registered in 2016, 2017 and, 2018 from the Ministry of Health (MoH) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MoAF) concerning the relevant diseases were included in the study. It is found that the DALYs of all related zoonotic diseases increased and the costs for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention also rose between 2016-2018. The share of total social cost in the GDP of Turkey was estimated to be 0.0090% in 2016, 0.0097% in 2017, and 0.0113% in 2018. It is argued that the seven zoonoses in the scope of this study have an increasing burden graph on Turkish society between 2016-2018. Moving from the fact that most infectious diseases that threaten human and community health are of zoonotic origin and difficulties in predicting when, where or how a zoonotic disease will occur, all sectors should continue to carefully monitor events related to zoonoses and carry out joint studies.

Özet

Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de insanlarda en sık görülen yedi ve hayvanlarda en sık görülen iki zoonotik hastalığın 2016-2018 yılları arasında neden olduğu hastalık yükü, hastalık maliyeti ve hayvansal kayıplar nedeniyle oluşan yük hesaplanmıştır. Türkiye'deki zoonotik hastalıklarının toplam maliyeti ve hastalık yükü üzerine bütünsel bir çerçeve sunarak literatüre katkıda bulunmayı amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışmanın metodolojisinde Birleşmiş Milletler Gıda ve Tarım Örgütü (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations -FAO) tarafından geliştirilmiş olan ‘‘Zoonotik Hastalıkların Hastalık Yükü’’ formülü temel alınarak ‘‘İnsanlarda Erken Ölümlerin Topluma Oluşturduğu Yük’’, ‘‘İnsanlarda Morbiditenin Oluşturduğu Yük’’, ‘‘Kaybedilen Hayvanların Mali Değeri’’ ve ‘‘Enfekte Hayvanlarda Üretim Kapasitelerinde Meydana Gelen Azalma’’ olarak dört ayrı başlıkta hesaplanmıştır. Sağlık Bakanlığı ve Tarım ve Orman Bakanlığından ilgili hastalıklar özelinde 2016, 2017 ve 2018 yılında kayıtlı olan tüm olgular çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. İlgili tüm zoonotik hastalıkların DALY'lerinin 2016-2018 yılları arasında arttığı ve tanı, tedavi ve önleme maliyetlerinin de yükseldiği tespit edilmiştir. Toplam sosyal maliyetinin GSYİH içindeki payı ise 2016 yılında %0,0090 2017 yılında %0,0097 ve 2018 yılında %0,0113 olarak tahmin edilmiştir. Bu çalışma kapsamında incelenen yedi zoonozun 2016-2018 yılları arasında Türk toplumu üzerinde artan bir yüke sahip olduğu görülmektedir. İnsan ve toplum sağlığını tehdit eden bulaşıcı hastalıkların çoğunun zoonotik kökenli olduğu ve bir zoonotik hastalığın ne zaman, nerede ve nasıl ortaya çıkacağını tahmin etmedeki zorluklardan hareketle, tüm sektörler zoonozlarla ilgili olayları dikkatle izlemeye ve ortak çalışmalar yapmaya devam etmelidir.
