There is a growing recognition of the potential importance of pathogen transmission at the wildlife-livestock interface in the epidemiology of diseases that impact on agriculture, human health and biodiversity. In our rapidly changing world the interface between human and wildlife populations has been profoundly modified by human activity. Effective management of disease risks at the wildlife-livestock interface should be sustainable, based on sound epidemiological and ecological knowledge, and must balance the requirements for preserving biodiversity, protecting

Dear subscribers,

Although not a zoonotic disease, rinderpest is the first animal disease eradicated from the world (second disease after smallpox). There is much we have learned from the fight against rinderpest and that we are applying today to address other diseases.

Wishing you all a good weekend
Regards

Katinka

Antibiotics among pollutants making agriculture the greatest source of water pollution

Dear friends and colleagues,

Agriculture is now the greatest source of water pollution worldwide, and among the most dangerous agro-pollutants is antibiotics and genes of resistant antibiotics, according to the FAO.

A press release by the FAO on 20 June says that water pollution from unsustainable agricultural practices poses a serious risk to human health and the planet's ecosystems. “In many countries the biggest source of water pollution today is agriculture — not cities or industry — while worldwide, the most common chemical contaminant found in groundwater aquifers is

Veterinary responders learn their role in livestock or poultry emergencies

The impact of an animal disease outbreak will have serious consequences. Ensuring that all responders understand the impact, the terminology used, and actions required will produce a more rapid and coordinated response.

The Center for Food Security and Public Health (CFSPH) at Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine is now offering a web-based course, Animal Disease Emergencies: Understanding the Response. The cost for the course is $100. To find out more and to register, visit http://www.cfsph.iastate.edu/ADE-Course/.

Hope the new year has started well for all of you. I thought this declaration on One Health launched during the World Veterinary Congress in 2017 summarizes well various aspects of One Health as well as the contribution of the veterinary profession.

Feed Safety Multi-stakeholder Partnership

Survey on guidance material (tools, methods, manuals, etc.) on how to conduct risk assessment for feed

What is the objective of the survey?
The FAO facilitated Feed Safety Multi-stakeholder Partnership is conducting this survey to take stock and collect currently available material (e.g. tools, methods, manuals) on how to conduct risk assessment for feed. This is done, in sight of preparing practical guidance and training materials (manual and other tools) to support the implementation of the Codex Alimentarius Guidelines on the Application of Risk Assessment for Feed (available at www.fao.org/input/download/standards/13322/CXG_080e.pdf<http://www.fao.org/input/download/standards/13322/CXG_080e.pdf>).

Dear all,

We are writing to inform you about a FAO/WHO global call for data for new JEMRA work on Verotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC)/Shigatoxigenic E. coli (STEC), and to ask you to forward this message to colleagues you think should be aware of this.

In response to the request of the 45th Session of the Codex Committee on Food Hygiene FAO and WHO are embarking on new work on VTEC/STEC to provide scientific advice to guide the development of appropriate Codex standards or guidelines on VTEC/STEC.

Discussion forum on participatory epidemiology

Participatory epidemiology (PE) is an emerging field that is based on the use of participatory techniques for the harvesting of qualitative epidemiological information contained within community observations, existing veterinary knowledge, and traditional oral history. It relies on the widely accepted techniques of participatory rural appraisal, surveys, and qualitative epidemiology (Schwabe, 1984). Thus, direct observation and the use of qualitative enquiry to collect epidemiological intelligence from the community are at the foundation of modern epidemiology.

Dear subscriber,
Today is 28 of September and World Rabies Day. WHO, OIE, FAO, together with GARC, are urging countries to develop appropriate investment strategies to eliminate human rabies. The disease is mainly transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected dog and is widespread in low-income countries, with little or no domestic and stray dog management or vaccination programmes.
Pilot programmes have successfully demonstrated that elimination of rabies is achievable mainly through mass dog-vaccination campaigns, supported by improved access to post-exposure prophylaxis (post-bite treatment) to people immediately after a suspected dog-bite. Over 95% of human cases of rabies

Dear Colleagues,

Rabies occurs in more than 150 countries and territories, with 95% of human deaths reported in Africa and Asia, mostly in rural areas. Recently dog-mediated human rabies deaths have been extensively discussed as a candidate for global elimination. Although there is a good dog rabies vaccine and effective human post exposure prophylaxis available, there are still many challenges for implementing rabies control, especially in developing countries.

Dear subscribers,
Apologies for not having been able to send out this VPH bulleting and a further issue as we are currently facing some problems with the system. Recently Patrick Otto has re-located from HQ to the sub-regional office in Harare, Zimbabwe and we will certainly miss him here.
I also wanted to share with you a WHO vacancy announcement that I just received as they are now recruiting for the post of Coordinator for AMR . External applications will need to be made through the WHO website at http://www.who.int/employment/en/ and the position can also be found at https://erecruit.who.int/public/hrd-cl-vac-view.asp?o_c=1000&jobinfo_uid_c=30716&vaclng=en

Dear subscribers,
Hope you all had a good start and taking this opportunity to convey out best wishes for 2015. The year has started with several avian influenza outbreaks of various strains across the globe. The Ebola outbreaks are still ongoing in West Africa and the progress being made in the field of vaccines seems to be promising. Still the impact of this disease on lives and livelihoods is unprecedented.
Again this year we welcome receiving your relevant information and announcements of events/vacancies for dissemination through this e-bulletin

Dear subscribers,
The year is coming to an end and hardly any time left to reflect. We certainly would like to thank you for reading our bulletins and a special thanks to Dr. Sandhya Sukumaran for her hard work with putting them together.

Just taking a few minutes and thinking about what we did not know last year but have been engaged in or confronted with in 2014 ? Ebola has made a huge impact and there are many lessons we have learned. But for each of us there have certainly been many more things we would not have thought

Dear subscriber,
With all the Ebola related activities it will be important not to forget that World Rabies Day will coming up next week. In countries affected by Ebola we are worried that diseases as rabies will also increase. Also this year FAO, OIE and WHO are joining forces to engage in rabies prevention and control. The Global Alliance for rabies Control (GARC) has launched this year #TogetherAgainstRabies and have a nice initiative on “Me and My dog” (https://meandmydog.rabiesalliance.org/ ). Would be nice to see you and your dogs there ☺

Dear subscribers,
In this FAO VPH Update we have combined the news from the last two weeks. The Ebola outbreak in West Africa is keeping us all very busy and we are seeing that it is not a merely public health issues but has become a complex emergency, requiring a broader “whole of society approach”. We are seeing the impact of this disease on food security and people’s lives and livelihoods. Quarantined villages often are not able to plant or harvest or go to markets to sell their produce. The impact of Ebola is far reaching and FAO has set

Furthermore forests, trees on farms and agroforestry systems can improve the food security and nutrition of rural people, especially in developing countries.
