We need to break down silos between human, animal and environment health. In Uganda, the #OneHealth approach is being used successfully to prevent #zoonoticdiseases.
We have to expand the science base. ALL the sciences!

#ZoonoticDisease comes from a deadly intersection of human, animal & environment health. Humans make up 36% of the biomass of all mammals, livestock 60%, and wild mammals just 4%.

Much more research is needed to understand the reservoirs of diseases, and understand the complex relationship between habitat destruction and zoonotic diseases, says Johannes Refisch #GLFBonn2020 #OneHealth

Most of the new infectious diseases of humans, such as #SARS, originate in wildlife. Our health is therefore directly linked to that of our environment.

The health of the environment, humans and animals are interrelated – we need to work together to understand the drivers of these diseases, and how they can be managed, says Bernard Bett #OneHealth #COVID19 #GLFBonn2020

Q&A with 's Bernard Bett: "Is One Health actually new? Are there indigenous ways of knowing that teaches us about 'one health'?"

#OneHealth is not new. It used to be called #OneMedicine.
Indigenous communities are wise to #OneHealth.
When African herders come down with #Brucellosis, they go back home & screen their animals to stop further disease transmission.

Where #OneHealth is not working so well.
Environment health has not yet been fully integrated into the existing #OneHealth strategies, yet this is critical for understanding some of the drivers of emerging infectious diseases.

Human activity drives today’s zoonotic diseases, we've identified 7 factors: agriculture, changes in food supply chains, increased use of wildlife, land use, unsustainable extractive industries, travel, climate change, says Doreen Lynn Robinson #OneHealth #GLFBonn2020

In the short term, we need to start breaking down silos within these sectors, human, environment and animal health specialists need to work together to combat zoonotic diseases, says Doreen Lynn Robinson #OneHealth #GLFBonn2020 #COVID19

We need a platform that allows for coordinated interaction, and at the policy level we work to develop this platform.
At the Ministry of Health Kenya, we have a platform for zoonotic diseases, allowing everyone to come together, says Dr Sultani #GLFBonn2020

Call for Action for #OneHealth Approach
1. Invest in strong monitoring, evaluation.
2. Fortify intervention to tackle emergence of infectious diseases.
3. Resource Mobilization in innovative ways is key.

One of the biggest concerns at the moment is with health programs that have ground to a halt, stopping momentum on some of the public health issues, such rabies and other things, Dr Sultani #OneHealth #GLFBonn2020

There is a risk with #COVID19 that we backslide on environmental issues.
We must emphasize how environment health undergirds human health and prosperity.
We have the roadmaps already.
We need to provide incentives.
We need to implement.

Human activities are drivers of zoonotic diseases, by degrading the environment, intensive agriculture and interaction with wild animals.
How we’re sharing information to assess drivers of the future pandemics is critical, says #GLFBonn2020

We need changes in behaviour. We've seen such changes on a massive scale due to #COVID19. In future, we have to ensure consumers are aware of the consequences of their daily choices.

It’s essential that we continue to raise awareness about how important environmental actions are to human health, economies (green investments), particularly now with so much media interest in zoonotic diseases, says #GLFBonn2020

The penny is beginning to drop that animal, human & environment health are connected. INTIMATELY connected.
#OneHealth ideas are becoming much more prominent. Including in political dialogue. That, I think, is new in this #COVID19 pandemic.

1 in 5 of us depend on livestock for our livelihoods, particularly important for nutrition, and millions of people would benefit from eating more livestock (and also millions that would benefit from eating less), says Iain Wright #GLFBonn2020

It wasn’t a question of if, but when the next pandemic might come, it’s clear that we don’t have the systems in place to do the surveillance in animals and humans, we need to invest more in this, says Iain Wright #OneHealth #COVID19
