World Veterinary Day Theme 2024
The theme for World Veterinary Day 2024 is “Veterinarians are essential health workers”. This theme focused on the importance and role of veterinarians in the overall health of the world. Vets play a role not only in animal health but also in human health. This role is hidden and indirect but highly significant. By keeping the animals healthy, vets protect the humans from the Zoonotic Diseases. These are the diseases which can be transferred from animals to humans.

Vets have a primary role in livestock production. They not only keep the farm animals and farm birds healthy but also contribute directly to their management and production. So by providing safe and healthy livestock products, they keep humans healthy. These products include milk, eggs, and meat. By providing animal protein and other nutrients, they keep humans strong and healthy, both physically and mentally.
As livestock products contribute the major share of human food, so vets also play a role in food security along with food safety and food quality.
By keeping animals healthy vets also keep the environment safe. This ultimately benefits both humans and animals. So Veterinarians are essential part of the health system as well as food security. Veterinarians are essential health workers.
