The vast majority of diseases that affect humans originally come from animals. Zoonotic diseases are diseases that can transmit from animals to humans and from humans to animals. It goes both ways.
The agency works, indeed, with other federal departments, such as the Public Health Agency of Canada, Health Canada, and Environment and Climate Change Canada, to take what we call a “one health” approach. That means, really, that we're interconnected. The health of animals is interconnected with that of humans and of the environment. When we approach issues, we take a “one health” approach. The veterinary community does the same.
That's also certainly been a theme for the chief veterinary officers of the provinces and territories.
