Human and Animal Health (USA) – From American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) Podcast
American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA)
Thursday, June 10, 2010.

 Human and Animal Health (USA) – From American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) Podcast:

Veterinarians play a prominent role in making sure our food supply is healthy and safe to eat by preventing the spread of foodborne illness among our livestock. Doing so not only keeps the animals healthy, but it also reduces the risk of human exposure to foodborne illnesses.

 In this podcast, W. Ron DeHaven, DVM, MBA, chief executive officer of the AVMA discusses the link between human and animal health and expresses the AVMA’s carefully considered perspectives about the use of antibiotics in food producing animals (i.e. livestock) relative to this practice’s “resistance development” concerns.

 Please listen to Dr. DeHaven by clicking the “MP3” in the following link.

University of California, Davis, CA (USA)  observes National Public Health Week

Professionals discuss topics in societal health

[Dr.] Cheryl Scott, program director for the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine's Calvin Schwabe One Health Project, suggested collaboration is needed in all fields of health in order to address the concerns of the nation as a whole.

According to Scott, "One Health" is the idea that one must consider factors that affect the health of all organisms.

"One Health is the intersection of human, animal and ecosystem health," Scott said. "It makes sense that since we all live in the same environment, then that environment must be healthy in order for us to be."

Scott wants attention drawn to crises that affect everyone, not just one life or entity, such as infectious diseases, food contamination, drug-resistant bacteria, habitat destruction and air/water quality.

One way to do that, she argues, is to engage students today who will be the workforce we depend on tomorrow.

"We need more smart and passionate people engaged in health issues," Scott said. "They need to be aware that none of us are isolated anymore. What affects one of us will eventually affect all of us. And students entering the health field need to realize that."

Structural Basis of Pre-existing Immunity to thé 2009 H1N1 Pandemic Influenza Virus

The emergence of the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic, also known as the "swine flu", marks the first human flu pandemic in 40 years and has caused significant human infection and mortality globally (1). The emergence of the 2009 H1N1 flu marks the first time that an influenza pandemic was triggered by a virus carrying the same hemagglutinin (HA) subtype as circulating seasonal strains. In contrast, all prior pandemics were caused by the rise of a novel influenza strain with a different hemagglutinin subtype. And unlike seasonal flu that usually affects the elderly most severely, swine flu has been primarily targeting people under the age of 65, implying some age-related pre-existing immunity (2, 3) … … READ MORE at

Case Study: Veterinarians without Borders-Canada

One health for one world: a compendium of case studies

 

http://aitoolkit.org/site/DefaultSite/filesystem/documents/OHOW_Compendium_Case_Studies.pdf

 

This compendium of case studies, prepared by Veterinarians without Borders with support from the Canadian Public Health Agency, promotes that the health of people, animals, and the ecosystem are inextricably woven together. The compendium includes a broad range of disease outbreaks across the globe including avian influenza H5N1 and pandemic influenza H1N1. Each study includes basic information about the clinical disease and the infectious agent associated with it, a description of why the disease is appropriate for one-health approaches, responses and conclusions, and implications for government, business and research policies.
