8. Prevention by “One Health approach”:
One Health (OH) approach has been described by the American Veterinary Medical Association as an integrative effort of multiple disciplines working locally, nationally and globally to gain optimal health for the humans, animals and the environment (American Veterinary Medical Association, 2008). The OH would be useful for a better understanding of the emerging and re-emerging diseases epidemiology, transmission dynamics and pathobiology. Hypothetically, different countries have approached implementing the principles of OH in various infectious diseases with variable success and challenges (Okello et al., 2014). Previously, the Rift Valley Fever (RVF) in Eastern Africa Region during 2006-07 outbreak played a vital role in galvanizing collaboration in OH approaches among researchers, international organizations and government departments to alleviate effects of future outbreaks and catalyzed the essential for perfect understanding and implementation of OH approach with an attention on supporting continued animal health surveillance activities (Breiman et al., 2010). RVF caused by a virus, namely phlebovirus that causesthe disease to animals and mosquitoes and can spread both by animal secretions and mosquito (Aedes ) bites (Flick and Bouloy, 2005; Linthicum et al., 1998). China has been implementing OH approaches for the coronavirus outbreaks in thepast and the present viz. SARS in 2002-03 and SARS-CoV-2 since 2019 and also for various other infectious diseases as well, which may have been prevented unnoticed (Menachery et al., 2015; Wu et al., 2016; Tan et al., 2017; Zheng et al., 2019; El Zowalaty and Järhult, 2020).Several studies reported that implementing OH approach against COVD-19 (Yoo and Yoo, 2020; Bonilla-Aldana et al., 2020).India also implemented OH surveillance system against COVD-19, which may be helpful tomitigate CQV infection on the whole (Yasobant et al., 2020; Manoj, 2020) to avoid huge loss.
