The synergy between human and veterinary medicine is not only a Medicina umana e medicina must for public health, but also implies ethical veterinaria: sinergia prioritaria considerations. The basic reasons requiring per la salute pubblica synergy are found in the common sharing of the environment, in the use of animal products Riassunto by humans, in the common culture and in the I concetti di “medicina unica” e “salute unica” many problems to be faced together.

Parole chiave Animale, Medicina, Sanità, Sanità pubblica, Zoonosi. Introduction Medicine is born as ‘one’. In Figure 1, the concept of ‘one medicine’ is illustrated as a large tree (medicine), the trunk of which is placed on fertile soil (basic sciences); it divides into two principal branches (human medicine and veterinary medicine) that are connected to each other by a large branch (public health). Satellite branches (specialisations) derive from each of the three main branches. Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Arabic healers and physicians cured both human and animal diseases. During the Middle Ages, the two medicines were separated for religious and practical reasons. Figure 1 The Renaissance witnessed a revival of The ‘One Medicine’ tree comparative medicine. Cattle plague which occurred between the xvi and the xix centuries In this paper, the factors that explain and highlighted the value of the contributions of encourage the link between the two medicines many outstanding physicians and other are analysed; this is a concept that is strongly scientists. The need for specialised operators supported by the Mediterranean Zoonoses justified the establishment of veterinary Control Programme (MZCP). schools in many countries. This emphasised and formalised the division between the two An ethical consideration medicines and constituted an important handicap for the practice of a holistic public Humans (one species) and animals (many health. In 1948, the importance of re‐bridging species) share the same planet and live on its the division between the two encouraged the resources. A partnership was established for World Health Organization (WHO) to set up a which animals provide to humans a series of veterinary public health programme, the goods and facilities; humans provide a selected principal function of which is to promote number of animals (the domesticated and 578 Vol. 44 (4), Vet Ital www.izs.it/vet_italiana © IZS A&M 2008 Adriano Mantovani Human and veterinary medicine: the priority for public health synergies semi‐domesticated species) what is required The production of these items requires the for their sustenance and production, while sharing of a number of resources, as follows: taking the authority and responsibility for the foodstuffs general management of the planet.

Telephone: 404-639-7380; Fax: 404-639-7369; E-mail: [email protected]. Introduction People readily associate the role of veterinarians with private veterinary practice focused on pets and farm animals, but the true dimensions and contributions of veterinary medicine are much broader and reflect expanding societal needs and contemporary challenges to animal and human health and to the environment (1). Veterinary medicine has responsibilities in biomedical research; ecosystem management; public health; food and agricultural systems; and care of companion animals, wildlife, exotic animals, and food animals. The expanding role of veterinarians at CDC reflects an appreciation for this variety of contributions. Veterinarians' educational background in basic biomedical and clinical sciences compare with that of physicians. However, unlike their counterparts in human medicine, veterinarians must be familiar with multiple species, and their training emphasizes comparative medicine. Veterinarians are competent in preventive medicine, population health, parasitology, zoonoses, and epidemiology, which serve them well for careers in public health.

Its ramifications extend to trade in live animals as well as the management of disease. It has wide international implications in animal quarantine, the setting of standards in food quality, and international trade. In the area of food quality, the WHO/FAO initiative of creating a global standard setting body (Codex Alimentarius) has resulted in a major advance in the harmonization of food quality standards.
