About the collection

One Health Outlook is calling for submissions to our Collection on 'One health approaches to control zoonotic viral diseases.' 

Zoonotic viruses, which transmit diseases between animals and humans, have significant impact on public health, animal health, and the environment. This Collection aims to focus on holistic strategies to prevent, monitor, and manage zoonotic viral diseases. 

We welcome original research, reviews, and case studies that elucidate the interconnections between human, animal, and ecosystem health, ultimately providing insights into effective surveillance, diagnostics, interventions, and policy frameworks.
