The One Health Initiative encourages collaborative and communication between medical, veterinary, and climate scientists, to attain optimal health for people, animals, plants and our environment. Their web page is a wealth of relevant information on the origins of covid-19, pathogens transmitted between humans and animals, prior outbreaks of emerging pathogens, and the impact of climate change and deforestation in creating the emergence of new pathogens. The web page is well worth taking the time to explore.

“Between animal and human medicine there are no dividing lines–nor should there be.” Rudolf Virchow, MD (the father of cellular pathology)
