A chronic disease, such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes, is a disease that is long-lasting or recurrent. Chronic diseases are the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. They account for 70% of all deaths in the U.S., which is 1.7 million each year. These diseases also cause major limitations in daily living for almost 1 out of 10 Americans or about 25 million people.

A zoonosis or zoonotic disease is one that normally exists in animals, but can infect humans. Human illness from a zoonotic disease agent is often accidental. People can become infected through contact with infected livestock, game animals, and pets. Also, some zoonotic diseases are transmitted to humans through tick and mosquito bites.

Adults need to make certain they have received all of their childhood vaccinations and stay up-to-date with the vaccinations that are recommended for adults. All college students attending school in New York State are required to be immunized against measles, mumps and rubella.
