Abstract
First paragraph: Firstly, can we thank Bowsher et al.1 for their work on zoonotic threats and the role that the veterinary profession can play in mitigation. This paper highlighted some very relevant points, in particular the need for more veterinary involvement in monitoring for zoonotic disease; that this work requires greater funding and that animal diseases are human diseases. We would also strongly agree with the conclusion that human and veterinary scientific communities need to collaborate to prevent any future pandemics.
