  3. Cryptosporidiosis Highly prevalent in cattle in France (40-60%). First cause of neonatal diarrheal disease (ruminants). No vaccine, limited chemotherapy. Economical loss for beef and dairy industry The principal clinical manifestation is a watery diarrhea in young calves that can lead to dehydration and ultimately death of the infected animals

  4. In Humans High prevalence in immunocompromised individuals; responsible for 25% of chronic diarrhea Zoonosis: 748 000 case/year US In developing countries: 8-19% of diarrheal disease In developped countries: 1-3% One Health issue: by controlling and understanding cattle infection we would be able to control human infection.
