Arboviruses pose significant public health challenges globally, particularly in Pakistan, where deforestation, climate change, urbanization, inadequate sanitation, and natural disasters have all contributed to the spread of mosquito-borne flavivirus diseases like dengue fever. The lack a thorough national surveillance system has made it difficult determine extent distribution these diseases. Concern been raised by recent outbreaks West Nile virus (WNV) chikungunya (CHIKV) epidemics, which may lead Zika (ZIKV) future. Additionally, hospital-based detected Japanese encephalitis (JEV) region. Evidence also points presence additional arboviruses healthy populations, such as Karshi (KSV), Tamdy (TAMV), Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHFV), severe with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTSV). This review aims address risk factors linked diseases, provide specific policy recommendations for efficient disease prevention control, describe epidemiological trends Pakistan while emphasizing critical need improved investigations.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global health crisis that threatens the efficacy of antibiotics and modern medical interventions. The emergence multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens, exacerbated by misuse in healthcare agriculture, underscores urgent need for innovative solutions. (1) Background: AMR arises from complex interactions between human, animal, environmental health, further aggravated overuse inadequate regulation antibiotics. Conventional treatments are increasingly ineffective, necessitating alternative strategies. Emerging approaches, including bacteriophage therapy, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), nanotechnology, microbial extracellular vesicles (EVs), CRISPR-based antimicrobials, provide novel mechanisms complement traditional combating resistant pathogens. (2) Methods: This review critically analyzes advanced antibacterial strategies conjunction with systemic reforms such as stewardship programs, One Health framework, surveillance tools. These methods can enhance detection, guide interventions, promote sustainable practices. Additionally, economic, logistical, regulatory challenges impeding their implementation evaluated. (3) Results: technologies, CRISPR exhibit promising potential targeting mechanisms. However, disparities resource distribution barriers hinder widespread adoption. Public–private partnerships agriculture practices critical to overcoming these obstacles. (4) Conclusions: A holistic integrated approach essential mitigating impact AMR. By aligning therapeutic policies, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, ensuring equitable distribution, we develop response this 21st-century challenge.

Zoonotic diseases pose a significant global health threat, driven by factors such as globalization, climate change, urbanization, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and intensified human–animal interactions. The increasing interconnectedness of human, animal, environmental underscores the importance OH paradigm in addressing zoonotic threats globalized world. This review explores complex epidemiology diseases, challenges associated with their management, necessity for cross-sector collaboration to enhance prevention control efforts. Key public strategies, including surveillance systems, infection measures, community education programs, play crucial roles mitigating outbreaks. However, gaps governance, resource allocation, interdisciplinary cooperation hinder effective disease particularly low- middle-income countries (LMICs). To illustrate effectiveness approach, this highlights successful PREDICT project, Rwanda’s National One Health Program, EcoHealth Alliance, Rabies Elimination Program Philippines. These initiatives demonstrate how integrating efforts can early detection, improve outbreak responses, reduce burdens. Strengthening enhancing infrastructure, regulating use, investing research technological innovations are essential steps toward risks. Ultimately, coordinated, multidisciplinary approach is vital dynamic posed ensuring security an increasingly interconnected
