Core Tip	Zoonoses are increasingly encountered in human pathology as the human/animal interface becomes closer and deeper. Rocahepevirus ratti, a virus related to the human hepatitis E virus but genetically highly divergent, has demonstrated the ability to cross species barriers and cause infections in humans. These infections, ranging from subclinical to severe and even life-threatening, are considered by many as an emerging threat to public health. The potential severity of Rocahepevirus ratti infections underscores the urgent need for improved diagnosis, treatment, and public health measures, as described in this editorial.
