A more extensive knowledge of the state of health of animals intended for slaughter during the period between birth and transportation to the slaughter-house, is essential to public health, particularly as regards the incidence of zoonoses and administration of drugs. In an integrated system of surveillance of the animal and meat production chain, it will be the duty of the veterinary practitioner to supervise the health of the animals by preventive and curative measures. This system should involve an exchange of information between producer, slaughter-house, veterinarians, those who give guidance on agricultural matters, supervising bodies and research institutes. The stock farmer will keep a record of disease or signs of disease and the use of drugs and submit a health report on delivery of animals to be slaughtered. By herd health programmes, carried out by the veterinary practitioner, optimum health, production and well-being should be achieved. A herd health programme includes objectives, material and methods, evaluation, analysis and advice. On the basis of the results of herd health programmes, the producer of animals intended for slaughter will be able to meet the requirements of the system of surveillance of the animal and meat production chain.
在动物出生至运往屠宰场期间，更广泛地了解其健康状况对公共卫生至关重要，尤其是在人畜共患病的发病率和药物管理方面。在动物和肉类生产链的综合监测系统中，兽医有责任通过预防和治疗措施监督动物的健康。该系统应包括生产者、屠宰场、兽医、农业事务指导人员、监管机构和研究机构之间的信息交流。养殖户应记录疾病或疾病迹象以及药物使用情况，并在交付待屠宰动物时提交健康报告。通过兽医实施的畜群健康计划，应实现最佳的健康、生产和福利状况。畜群健康计划包括目标、材料和方法、评估、分析及建议。根据畜群健康计划的结果，待屠宰动物的生产者将能够满足动物和肉类生产链监测系统的要求。
