| dc.description | Veterinarians in their daily work are exposed to many pathogens that can spread between animals and humans (zoonoses). Preventing zoonoses is of high importance in human health, considering that 60 percent of all human infectious diseases are zoonotic in origin. The aim of this leaflet is to provide veterinarians with practical tips to protect themselves from zoonoses while working with animals, and also to keep their livestock healthy by preventing diseases. It provides recommendations about personal protective equipment use, hand washing, and other general good practices for veterinarians’ daily work. | |
