Abstract
The World Health Organization defines"One Health"as a comprehensive and unified approach aimed at balancing and optimizing the health of humans,animals,and ecosystems.The underlying principle is that the health of humans,animals,and plants,as well as the environment,are closely interconnected and interdependent.This approach helps prevent global disease outbreaks,improve human and animal health,and protect biodiversity.One Health advocates for maintaining the health and safety of humans,animals,and plants worldwide by promoting cross-sectoral and interdisciplinary collaboration.Currently,solid scientific and medical evidence has demonstrated the close connection between human health,animal health,and the shared environment of humans,animals,and plants,providing strong support for the One Health concept.Although there are both supportive ethical arguments and opposing views in academia regarding the One Health concept and approach,the criticisms primarily stem from conceptual and practical challenges in its implementation.However,these criticisms do not fundamentally negate the validity of the One Health concept.Taking bats as a typical species,the destruction of their habitats by humans,global climate anomalies,and food resource shortages—among other factors—have led to the deterioration of bat health and weakened immune systems.This,in turn,increases viral shedding,ultimately heightening the risk of cross-species transmission.This case strongly confirms the close interdependence between human health,animal health,and ecosystem health.It highlights the importance and urgency of promoting and implementing the One Health concept globally to prevent major pandemics.关键词
