November 3 is One Health Day

One Health recognizes that the health of people is connected to the health of animals, plants, and our shared environment. CDC uses the One Health approach by involving experts in animal, human, environmental health, and other sectors in monitoring and controlling public health threats to improve the health of people, animals, plants and the environment.

This year's One Health Day is particularly special because this is the inaugural year of the U.S. One Health Coordination Unit (U.S. OHCU). The launch of the U.S. OHCU marks the first formal One Health mechanism for coordination among U.S. federal agencies, including those linked to public health, environment, agriculture, plant, wildlife, and other relevant sectors.
