Public health is dependent on animal health in rural areas because poor animal health directly affects the human food supply. Veterinary public health entails the diagnosis, surveillance, epidemiology, control, prevention and elimination of Zoonoses. Unsatisfactory implementation of stringent disease control, meat inspectorate and drug dispensation legislations prevents the efficient production of food of animal origin; creating obstacles to international trade in animals and animal products and hence an impediment to overall socioeconomic development

- zoonosis to describe this commonality of disease that can pass between animals and man. Becoming a strong advocate for the improvement of meat inspection, sewage systems and housing conditions, Virchow recognized the interconnectivity between human health, safe food and a clean environment. American veterinary epidemiologist Calvin Schwabe developed his view of one medicine in the 1960s. Inspired by his work with Dinka pastoralist healers in Sudan who cared for humans and animals alike, Schwabe recognized the pool of knowledge in anatomy, physiology and pathobiology that is common among animals and humans. His concept of one medicine applied these principles to food safety and nutrition, zoonotic disease, epidemiology and population medicine, environmental health and social wellness. In 1999, WHO veterinary public health . (This holistic notion has gained international acceptance ); In 1999 WHO convened a conference of invited experts from 18 industrialized, countries in transition, and developing countries in Teramo, Italy in collaboration with FAO and OIE(1) Human and animal health problems are inextricably linked
- Veterinary Public Health (VPH) was defined by the WHO consultation on "future trends in veterinary public health" held in Teramo, Italy in 1999 Human health is inextricably linked to animal health and production. This link between human and animal populations, and with the surrounding environment, is particularly close in developing regions where animals provide transportation, draught power, fuel and clothing as well as proteins (meat, eggs and milk) preventable animal diseases that can be transmitted to humans (i.e. zoonoses) such as rabies, brucellosis, leishmaniasis and echinococcosis continue to occur in many countries especially in the developing world where they mostly affect the poorest segment of the human population.

- in rural setups,
- To develop recommendations for delivering VPH services at the community level that are consistent with community involvement in health promotion, and take into account the increasing privatization of veterinary services
- Butchers, who are to operate new slaughter facilities and butcheries, must also be trained in slaughter techniques and in meat cutting and hygiene. Mkombozi: comparison of goodmeat and condemned.
- KENYAN VS USA SITUATION An alarming report from the Government Accountability Office warns of a growing shortage of veterinarians nationwide, âparticularly of veterinarians who care for animals raised for food, serve in rural communities, and have training in public health.â veterinarians have played a vital role in the identification, diagnosis, control and surveillance of all EID With 50 percent of U.S. Public Health Service veterinary medical officers now eligible for retirement , The Bureau of Labor Statistics has projected a need for an additional 22,000 veterinarians by 2016, yet colleges of veterinary medicine have not received direct federal infrastructure support in more than 30 years . This must change, and it must change soon . Dr. Marguerite Pappaioanou is executive director of the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges.
- In summary, information management skills must replace memorization and intuition in VPH decision making. epidemiology must be used as the primary guide for veterinary public health policies based on prevention. exchanging information on surveillance of diseases is to ensure that similar criteria are used to collect and count the data. This harmonization is best achieved by adherence to standards developed by international organizations such as OIE and WHO
- Communities should be regularly informed on the progress and achievements of VPH programs using the local media information sources. If they know they are part of the action and contributing to it the controls are much more likely to succeed
