Pathogens can be transmitted from a person-to-animal and animal-to-person, causing similar diseases in the person and animal. The evidence strongly suggests infectious pathogens are a cause of many chronic diseases. The high rate of parvovirus in cancer patients is concerning.   Pet dogs owned by lupus patients are at a higher risk of developing.pdf https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3362544/#__sec11title
