First, while OH has been adopted by key policy and research institutions across multiple disciplines, its uptake by researchers beyond the veterinary sciences has been relatively limited. Second, the nonveterinary fields where it has been taken up are those with direct interests in key OH topics, particularly those related to infectious diseases. Finally, the differing fields allied to OM and OWOH reflect their orientations toward clinical medicine and global health/infectious diseases. Dasgupta R, Tomley F, Alders R, Barbuddhe SB, Kotwani A.

PMID: 37875898 Free PMC article. Review. Of all the anecdotes included in this book, the only one I knew was Barry Marshall’s research leading to treatment for human ulcers. It is clear that authors were starting to use OH as a standalone term from 2008, and following the FAO/WHO/OIE joint statement in 2010, OH overtook its predecessors and became adopted much more widely. Data for 2014 suggest an acceleration of this trend, with citations using the term OH nearly doubling to 173 per year, although usage of OM and OWOH persists at much lower levels.

Current education, policy and funding are not structured to support collaboration between human and veterinary medicine. Humanimal Trust exists to change this, to ensure medical progress is made equally and sustainably for humans and animals moving forward. Even with experimental therapies, such as for cancer, if we share what we already know from veterinary clinical practice and consensual clinical trials with animals, we have the potential to save the lives of both humans and animals without the need to sacrifice a healthy animal’s life. Humans and animals share a lot of their biology and, according to the World Health Organisation, over 60% of all known causes of infectious disease are shared between humans and animals.
