Veterinarians: Guardians Against Zoonotic Diseases and Champions of One Health

This episode of Veterinary Vertex features insights from Drs. Will Sander and Sulagna Chakraborty, as they dissect the complexities of zoonotic diseases. Our discussion unveils findings from a national survey, emphasizing how pivotal veterinarians are in the battle against these diseases. We discuss how veterinarians are critical in the One Health initiative, a movement acknowledging the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. Will and Sulagna draw from their experiences to illustrate the challenges and triumphs of educating clients about zoonotic risks, especially in homes with those most vulnerable to infection. Will and Sulagna shed light on the essential conversations that need to happen within the vet-client dynamic and the broader implications for public health as we know it. By tuning in, you'll gain a profound appreciation for the role of veterinarians in society and the critical importance of communication and education to safeguard the health of our communities.
