The #OneHealth approach looks at human, animal and plant health in an integrated manner. But what does this mean in practice? Giovanni Leonardi from @MinisteroSalute describes how Italy 🇮🇹 has translated the approach into action.


#OneHealth is a lifestyle, a way of living! To support and promote One Health, you can ✅ help wildlife stay wild ✅ follow antibiotic treatments as prescribed by health professionals ✅ ensure pets are vaccinated ✅ reduce waste & recycle ✅ walk & cycle more
