🌱 Two epidemics, one big gap.
Human diseases trigger immediate global action.
Crop pests? Often overlooked, yet they destroy up to 40% of global crops each year.
Plant health = food security economic stability.

🐁Rodents can contaminate food, water and food production environments with pathogens such as hantaviruses.
How can a #OneHealth approach help reduce zoonotic transmission risks along food chains and strengthen prevention?

This isn't just an animal health story.
New World screwworm can infect humans too, particularly through untreated wounds.
The bigger lesson is One Health: a parasite affecting livestock can quickly become a public health, food security, and economic issue.
Prevention is almost always cheaper than eradication.

High levels of inequality are making the world more vulnerable to pandemics, making pandemics more economically disruptive and deadly, and last longer.
Pandemics in turn increase inequality, driving the cyclical, self-reinforcing relationship.
