Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

This item tests a basic fact about leptospirosis and its transmission.
Option 1: True. Leptospirosis is indeed a zoonotic disease, meaning it is transmitted from animals to humans. It is caused by spirochete bacteria of the genus Leptospira, which are shed in the urine of infected animals (such as rodents, livestock, and wildlife) and can contaminate water or soil. Humans become infected through contact with contaminated water, soil, or animal urine, often via mucous membranes or broken skin. This jusifies selecting True.
Option 2: False. Claiming it is not zoonotic would be incorrect because the established mode of transmission involves animal reservoirs and environmental contamination, which is the hallmark of zoonotic diseases. The statement ignores the animal-to-human transmission pathway and the public health relevance of animal reservoirs, thus making it inaccurate.
In sum, recognizing leptospirosis as zoonotic aligns with the epidemiology and transmission routes known for the disease, while denying it overlooks the key animal link and exposure pathways.
