Questiondo rabbit spead diseaes?
AnswerDear Shu Ting,
There are almost no diseases that can pass from a rabbit to a human with a healthy immune system.
Rabbits and humans can both get certain types of mites (Sarcoptes scabei, for one) and ringworm fungus, but it's just as likely (maybe moreso) for a human to transmit these to a rabbit than the other way around.
Tularemia is a disease that can be contracted from eating the meat of wild rabbits--but this is generally not a risk with domestic rabbits.
In short, I would not worry about zoonotic (animal to human) diseases from rabbits.
Hope that helps.
