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 https://t.co/hqaOeeiBvV

[CDC Emerging Infections @CDC_NCEZID]

Some health threats are too great to address alone. We use the One Health approach to see effective and sustainable solutions to address these threats. Explore how #OneHealth can protect us all. #OneHealthDay

[CDC Emerging Infections @CDC_NCEZID]

When we recognize the connection between people, animals, plants, and our shared environment, we can better work together to achieve the best health outcomes for all. https://t.co/r1EDhw7oWg #OneHealth #OneHealthDay

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

The #OneHealth approach is for everyone!

No matter who you are, where you live, you have a role in it!

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

It's #WorldRabiesDay.

Every nine minutes a person dies from #rabies, although it is 100% preventable.

Protect yourself & your furry friends 🐶 by getting your dog vaccinated annually. Ensure people who are bitten also get access to life saving vaccines 🐾https://t.co/M74Jg5q9dH

Every year, the world loses 12 million hectares of forests due to deforestation.

Indigenous peoples are on the frontline of global conservation efforts, but greater support is needed as they fight for our planet’s ecological well-being. https://t.co/XO4rJfI0hD
