      The One Health concept is a worldwide strategy for expanding interdisciplinary collaborations and communications in all aspects of health care for humans, animals, and the environment. It recognizes the interconnections of human and animal health with environmental health and that no single discipline or sector of society has enough knowledge and resources to prevent the emergence or resurgence of diseases in today’s globalized world.
      Disease has been with us since the beginning of human society, considering the fact that 2,500 years ago it was Hippocrates who urged physicians to consider where their patients lived, the foods they ate and waters they drank, their lifestyles, and the seasons of the year. In the 19th century, pioneering pathologist Rudolf Virchow stated that “between animal and human medicine there are no dividing lines—nor should there be.”
