Abstract

Leptospirosis has recently been classified as an emerging disease because of large clusters of cases resulting from exposure during recreational activities and natural disasters. In addition to their involvement in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of leptospirosis in animals, veterinarians serve an important role in public health by providing guidance and information on risk factors and prevention and control measures.

摘要

由于在娱乐活动和自然灾害期间接触而导致大量病例聚集，钩端螺旋体病最近被归类为一种新发疾病。兽医除了参与动物钩端螺旋体病的预防、诊断和治疗外，还通过提供有关风险因素以及预防和控制措施的指导和信息，在公共卫生方面发挥着重要作用。
