Register for your FREE access to Public Health Associate   |   Im a registered user – LOGIN Associate - Public Health The Public Health Associate is a diagnostic reminder tool as well as an electronic reference resource. Designed and edited by Norman C. Ronald, PhD, a parasitologist and epidemiologist, and Dr. Craig N. Carter, Associate developer, Public Health Associate presents human infectious and parasitic disease information in a consistent and concise manner. This tool is for use by physicians, nurses, physician assistants, veterinarians and other public health professionals and students. In order to have a complete biosecurity tool, youll also receive access to the Foreign Animal Disease Associate. These diseases are organized in chapters. The chapters are divided such that the diseases are either a disease of a system or causal diseases. Furthermore, the etiologies, clinical findings, procedures, and procedure findings are part of a standardized lexicon so that the same finding will be used in all the diseases where it is found. This is what allows the Associate knowledge bases to be used as a clinical decision support tool. Each disease description contains the following headings: Disease name Disease synonyms Etiologies Epidemiology (Etiological agent, reservoir hosts, portal of escape, transmission/dissemination, portal of entry, susceptible hosts, incubation period, seasonal distribution, geographical distribution, epidemiological variables, mortality, zoonotic classification). Relationship to immunodeficiency Clinical picture in animals Clinical signs, symptoms, epidemiological indicators Diagnostic procedures and results Geographical distribution Vectors/Invertebrate Hosts Antibiotic/anti-parasitic drugs of choice Treatment/management/prevention Differential diagnosis Bibliographic citation list Some diseases may include an image of a map in the top right corner of the disease discription. The red areas on the map represent the geographical distribution of the disease. Click on the map to see a larger version. SEE: http://www.publichealthassociate.com/

CONSERVATION AND HEALTH PART 3 Modern livestock Production: Are the Benefits Worth the Risks? In the United States and other developed nations we produce some of world’s safest, least expensive, and most accessible beef, pork, and poultry products. Because of their e_ciencies, US production techniques are being adopted worldwide to meet the protein needs for the world’s growing human population. Yet, the production methods can have adverse impacts upon our environment, and they have potential to amplify and spread dangerous emerging infectious diseases. _is forum will feature two experts who will present the advantages and the disadvantages of modern livestock production.

PLoS ONE Journal Willingness to Consult a Veterinarian on Physician’s Advice for Zoonotic Diseases: A Formal Role for Veterinarians in Medicine? Speare R, Mendez D, Judd J, Reid S, Tzipori S, Massey PD - PLoS ONE 10(8): e0131406. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0131406 Published: August 3, 2015 Abstract Physicians appear to find zoonotic diseases a challenge and consider that this topic belongs more to the veterinary profession. However, veterinarians have no formal role in clinical medicine. Data were collected as part of the Queensland Social Survey 2014 to determine the willingness of the public, if diagnosed with a zoonotic disease, to consult a veterinarian on the advice of a physician. Self-reported willingness to consult with a veterinarian at the respondent’s own expense was 79.8% (95% CI: 81.96%-77.46%) (976/1223). If the cost was funded by Medicare, the Australian public health insurance scheme, 90.7% (95% CI: 92.18%-88.92%) (1109/1223) would be willing to consult a veterinarian. Therefore, a large majority of Australian residents would be willing to consult with a veterinarian on the advice of their physician if they had a zoonotic disease. Does this indicate a possible new role for veterinarians under Clinical One Health? http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371journal.pone.0131406

Journal of Marine Biology and Aquaculture – Open Access Letter to Editor One Health, One Aquaculture – Aquaculture under One Health Umbrella Lissandra Souto Cavalli*, Kelly Cristina Tagliari de Brito, Benito Guimarães de Brito Technical Innovation Laboratory, Fepagro Animal Health, Brazil *Corresponding Author: Cavalli, L.S. , Technical Innovation Laboratory, Fepagro Animal Health, Brazil. Tel: (55) 5134813711; E-mail: liscavalli@gmail.com Abstract The One Health concept applied to aquaculture include many aspects involving animal, human and environmental health, political, economic and social developments. Here we highlight the aspects associated with occupational health in aquaculture within the concept of One Health. From a public health perspective, the aquaculture industry could uses the One Health approach to prevent and control occupational diseases in aquaculture workers. We propose to bring the One health concept for aquaculture in order of prevent and control health and safety hazards for workers in aquaculture. See Attached PDF

Book review to appear soon in: Oxford Public Health Magazine, Issue 3, page 6, available at www.oxfordpublichealth.com/magazine - See attached PDF   Global Population Health and Well-Being in the 21st Century: Toward New Paradigms, Policy and Practice (Springer Publishing, New York, 2016) Author: George R Lueddeke PhD [http://www.onehealthinitiative.com/publications/221215GLShortBio.pdf] A must read for public health, clinical, and social care students, teachers, and practitioners alike, including case studies to provide a thorough and up-to-date account of the past, present, and future of global public health. Dr Lueddeke effectively highlights the ingenuity gap between today’s wicked problems and their potential solutions, with a timely emphasis on the concepts of ‘planetary health’ and ‘integrative ecological public health’. Following on from the four “waves” of public health interventions in developed nations, including water/sanitation (first), medical and scientific breakthroughs (second), the welfare state and social security (third), and the current focus on systems thinking, risk factors, and lifestyle (fourth), there is now an emerging need for the “Fifth Wave” interventions that require complex adaptive systems thinking. Dr Lueddeke presents a manifesto for collective public health action through the ‘One Health’ movement, recognising the inter-dependencies in the health of people, other animals and the environment we live in. One of the main aims of the book is to support the implementation of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, including the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). This book describes part of the solution being the development of an effective public health workforce through innovations in education and training, offering a proposal for Centers of One Health Excellence (COHE) worldwide. Our mission at Oxford Public Health is aligned closely with many of the compelling concepts in this very informative and groundbreaking read.

A multidisciplinary (“One Health”) proposal still worth considering... Parasites & Vectors Journal – Open Access Toward the formation of a Companion Animal Parasite Council for the Tropics (CAPCT) – May 2015 http://www.parasitesandvectors.com/content/8/1/271 “Towards a solution We propose formation of the Companion Animal Parasites Council for the Tropics (CAPCT). The CAPCT will consist of regional (e.g. Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Caribbean, Africa) experts comprising academic veterinarians, parasitologists, physicians and allied industry partners that will work together to inform, guide and make best-practice recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment and control of companion animal parasites in the tropics, with the aim of protecting animal and human health. The organization will seek input through close collaboration with the practicing veterinarians, medical and public health professions, regional government and non-for-profit bodies. In addition to biannual meetings, the Council will organize veterinary and public outreach events in each region to facilitate transfer of knowledge through local lectures, workshops, symposia within local conferences and webinars to primary stakeholders such as veterinarians and breeders. General and region-specific recommendations for the treatment and control of companion animal parasites will be developed and made available through a dedicated, freely accessible website.”   Note:  Corresponding co-author, Dr. Filipe Dantas-Torres [MV, MSc, DSc, PhD, FRES, Dipl EVPC], is a longstanding One Health supporter http://www.onehealthinitiative.com/supporters.php.   For a more broad spectrum ‘One Health’ and parasitology consideration, August 2009, see: http://www.parasitesandvectors.com/content/pdf/1756-3305-2-36.pdf.
