At @compvetimm we strongly believe that we have a role to play in the #OneHealth approach - integrating human, animal, and ecosystem health - particularly in the context of existing and emerging infectious diseases
Join us in our mission!! #ComparativeImmunology
Today is One Health Day.
The health of humans, animals and ecosystems are closely interlinked. Changes in these relationships can increase the risk of new human and animal diseases developing and spreading.
#OneHealth is an approach to optimize the health of humans, animals and ecosystems by integrating these fields, rather than keeping them separate bit.ly/40A3wa6
