World Zoonoses Day
A zoonosis is a disease that is transmitted from animals to man The
most talked of these days are leptospirosis, and "mad cow disease"
(not prevalent in India
It is essential to have
oneself and one's pets vaccinated against these diseases All food animals need
to also be regularly vaccinated, or their meat would not be fit for consumption
However, most people have a rather casual attitude towards vaccination, some
even fear it World Zoonoses Day is celebrated on July 6 every year to bring the
problem into people's consciousness, and remind them to take action
