veterinary public health

Veterinary public health is a field focused on protecting human health through the study and management of animal-related issues. It involves preventing and controlling diseases that can be transmitted from animals to people, ensuring food safety, and promoting responsible animal care. Veterinarians in this field work to monitor animal populations, prevent zoonotic diseases (those that jump from animals to humans), and improve overall health standards in communities. This comprehensive approach helps safeguard public health, supports sustainable agriculture, and addresses potential health risks associated with animals and animal products.
