One Health is also increasingly incorporated into undergraduate and graduate teaching related to health and disease, broadly defined, and into public policy. As a concept it has great potential if considered in terms of the conceptual fr...

The microbial world is complex, dynamic and constantly evolving. Infectious agents reproduce rapidly, mutate frequently, cross the species barrier between animal hosts and humans, and adapt with relative ease to their new environments. Because of these traits, infectious agents are able to alter their epidemiology, their virulence, and their susceptibility to anti-infective drugs. When disease ...
