ANIMAL HOARDING POVERTY AND PETS, A PROBLEM OF
VETERINARY PUBLIC HEALTH?
2
Posing the problem-I
In the last few years, in some cities the
presence of homeless people accompanied by
animals, usually dogs, has increased. In most of
the cases, this is followed by poor sanitary
conditions These people usually have the habit of
living in parks, where they keep their
possessions and their animals.
Can this situation be considered a sanitary risk
to the Veterinary Public Health? Justify your
point of view
3
Posing the problem-II
In a given European city it has been observed
that some points of aggregation of indigent
people with these characteristics started to
appear. Therefore it has been decided to carry
out a study of potential risks.
How would you set up the study and which research
tools do you think are necessary?
Epidemiological monitoring/vigilance
Definition of groups to be monitored
SPECIES Definition of groups at risk GROUPS AT
RISK
4
IDENTIFICATION OF POSSIBLE SITUATIONS OR
ASSOCIATED ELEMENTS OF RISKS How will you carry
out the search for factors that can be at risk?
Epidemiological survey
Design the ideal model of QUESTIONNAIRE
5
PREVENTIVE MEDICINE STRATEGIES
Decision making about what to do when facing the
problem, will be supported in the previous RISK
ANALYSIS.
Will you be able to design an analysis for the
hypothetical scenario in which the situation
takes place in your city? Carry out a
qualitative Risk Analysis and depending on this
evaluation decide the Risk Management Measures
(preventive medicine) that could be applied in
your town.
