黑猩猩（Pan troglodytes）对许多人类来源的病毒和细菌病原体易感。本病例系列报告了一组30只圈养黑猩猩因人类呼吸道合胞病毒和肺炎链球菌引起的呼吸道疾病急性暴发。这两种病原体都是潜在的人畜共患病。该诊断是在死前进行的，能够对疫情做出有针对性的反应;但更重要的是，它促进了动物园内疾病监测、降低风险的生物安全和风险沟通协议的改进。明确的人畜共患疾病风险沟通途径为其他集合的管理和合规要求提供了模型。
Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) are susceptible to many viral and bacterial pathogens of human origin. This case series reports an acute outbreak of respiratory disease due to human respiratory syncytial virus and Streptococcus pneumoniae in a single group of 30 captive chimpanzees. Both pathogens are potentially zoonotic. The diagnosis was made antemortem and enabled a targeted response to the outbreak; but it more importantly, prompted improvements to the disease surveillance, biosecurity for risk mitigation and risk communication protocols within the zoo. A defined zoonotic disease risk communication pathway provides a model for management and compliance requirements for other collections.
